Gross Point No. 1 sits on eleven acres in John Ball Park, a west-side neighborhood defined by the zoo and park that give it its name, with nearly half the area devoted to green space. You're minutes from downtown Grand Rapids—about six and a half minutes by car—and surrounded by over forty restaurants within a mile, plus a grocery store just over a mile away. The real draw here is the density of everyday life wrapped around actual land: a coffee shop is a three-minute walk, transit stops are two minutes on foot, and Covell Park is right there in six minutes if you want to step outside.
