Between roughly 36th and 44th Streets, the residential grid west of US-131 runs along Byron Center Avenue SW — the north–south arterial that gives this pocket of the City of Wyoming its name. What reads as a single area on the map is really a cluster of mid-century platted subdivisions: Broad Acres, Gladiola Gardens, Wedgewood Homesites, and the Dok Park replat, each recorded as this part of Kent County filled in with postwar housing. There's no grander origin story than that — just streets of single-family homes that have been lived in, added onto, and remodeled for decades.
