A vacated alley runs through the middle of this 4-acre subdivision, a quirk that speaks to downtown's willingness to reimagine its own infrastructure. The area sits steps from transit and an embarrassment of restaurants—492 within a mile—while Crescent Park anchors the edge, surrounded by 31 parks within walking distance. Grocery runs take about 15 minutes on foot, and coffee is a 4-minute stroll away. Downtown Grand Rapids itself is barely three minutes by car, making this part of Downtown less a separate enclave and more an extension of the core's density and walkability, served by Grand Rapids Public Schools.
