The gravel lot fills with dust when you turn in, and a few finished homes sit scattered across twenty-five acres like they're still figuring out where they belong. Byron Plaza No. 2 is a platted subdivision in Byron township, southwest of Grand Rapids, with room to breathe and sixty-six restaurants within a mile—a useful number when you're tired of cooking. Downtown is about twelve minutes away by car, and the nearest restaurant is an eight-minute walk if you're willing to trade the quiet for something to eat.
