Glass Koster Add. sits in the heart of Highland Park, a dense residential pocket where you're five minutes from downtown Grand Rapids but the streets feel genuinely removed from the rush. The subdivision itself is small—just four acres carved into tight lots averaging a quarter-acre each—so the feel is compact and walkable to the essentials: a coffee shop is ten minutes on foot, restaurants number in the hundreds within a mile, and transit access is immediate. Homes here run around $293K, attracting people looking for older character and proximity to Grand Rapids Public Schools without the premium on space. Eastern Park sits a short walk away, and twelve parks cluster within a mile. The trade-off is honest—you're trading lot size for location and walkability to Michigan Street, the Medical Mile, and downtown dining. Twenty minutes gets you to Gerald R. Ford Airport.
