Ellsworth's Addition
Walkable and connected
Walkability 6.8/10·Schools 4.1/10
When you turn onto this corner in Heartside, you're steps from transit and surrounded by the brick bones of a neighborhood that's become Grand Rapids' most electric creative district. Ellsworth's Addition sits within a block of restaurants, coffee shops, and galleries—408 dining spots within a mile, with Heartside Park just a two-minute walk away. The amended plat spans just one acre across Lot 12 of Block 10 and Lot 8 of Block 11, nestled against the vacated Bartlett Street and Ellsworth Avenue alley, positioning you in an urban core where downtown is 2.4 minutes away and you can reach the airport in about 22 minutes. Grand Rapids Public Schools serves this area, and the neighborhood's bones—warehouses turned breweries, studios, and shops along Division Avenue—make it clear this is where the arts and food scene actually lives.
