Sitting right at the edge of Downtown, this one-acre plat puts you steps from the Grand River and what makes the neighborhood tick—restaurants, coffee shops, and transit stops are all within arm's reach. Louis Campau Promenade is right there, and with 28 parks within a mile, you're never far from green space. The dining here is relentless: 474 restaurants within a mile means everything from breweries that helped Grand Rapids earn its beer-city reputation to casual spots you'll walk to without thinking twice. Grocery shopping is a 12-minute walk away, and transit access is immediate—useful when you're a quick 1.5 minutes from downtown proper. Schools fall under Grand Rapids Public Schools. If you're looking at the broader view, Gerald R. Ford Airport is about 21 minutes out, and there's a boat launch at Butterworth Park just over a mile away if you're into the water.
