Fox & Burch'S Sub

What surprises people about this stretch of Southeast Grand Rapids is how close everything actually is—downtown is five minutes away, yet the neighborhood feels removed from the rush. The area is dense and walkable, with a transit stop just two minutes on foot and nearly fifty restaurants within a mile, from quick neighborhood spots to proper sit-down places. Rasberry Field sits three minutes' walk away, and there are nine parks scattered across the immediate radius. The blocks themselves are tight—average lots around twelve hundredths of an acre—which means homes are modest and affordable, built mostly in the nineties and early two-thousands, many of them recently remodeled with new kitchens, bathrooms, and mechanicals.
