Ellsworth's Addition
Walkable and connected
Walkability 6.9/10·Schools 4.1/10
Sitting in the heart of Oldtown-Heartside, this two-acre amended plat occupies some of downtown Grand Rapids' most walkable real estate—the kind of place where you're steps from transit, surrounded by brick warehouses converted into galleries and breweries, and the Downtown Dog Park is literally next door. Division Avenue's creative corridor runs through the neighborhood, and you're about three minutes on foot from your first restaurant, four from coffee. The Gerald R. Ford Airport sits about twenty-three minutes south; downtown proper is less than three minutes away by car.
