Falconcrest Industrial Park

...and that's where Falconcrust Industrial Park sits—a compact 87-acre subdivision in Kentwood city where lot sizes hover around a quarter-acre and homes run around $331K, which means you're working with modest footprints but close enough to Gerald R. Ford airport (4.6 minutes) that you can watch planes without leaving your driveway. The neighborhood has 42 restaurants within a mile, so you won't starve, though the nearest coffee shop is about two miles away—a minor inconvenience in exchange for being just 20 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids when you need it. It's the kind of place where industrial bones show through a residential finish, compact and practical, served by West Michigan Aviation Academy schools, with the Airport Viewing Area about a mile and a half north if you ever want to sit and watch the sky get busy.
