Cuming & Ferry's Addition

You'll feel the shift the moment you turn onto Lexington Avenue—suddenly you're stepping into John Ball Park, a west-side neighborhood where almost half the land breathes green space and the zoo's presence shapes everything around you. This little amended plat sits right in the heart of it, just steps from a transit stop and grocery, with 366 restaurants and 24 parks packed into a mile radius, so running errands or grabbing coffee feels less like a trip and more like walking out your door. Downtown Grand Rapids is about four minutes away, and you've got the dog park a short walk off, which matters more than you'd think until you live here. The whole area hums with a mix of students from the nearby university campus, families, and professionals who've figured out that you don't need much space to live well when everything—Fulton Street's shops and bars, Douglas Park, the whole scene—is already right there.
