🛝Walk to a playground

You're about two steps from a coffee shop, and a five-minute walk lands you at dinner—that's the rhythm of Josiah Burton & Cos. Sub., a 13-acre platted subdivision within John Ball Park on Grand Rapids' west side. Homes here run around $253K, and you're trading sprawl for proximity: downtown is less than five minutes away by car, transit stops are right at your doorstep, and 132 restaurants cluster within a mile, with dining scores that rival any walkable neighborhood. The subdivision sits on modest lots—about 0.11 acres each—but that compactness buys you access: Lincoln Park is a three-minute walk, 16 parks lie within a mile, and the Grand Rapids Public Schools serve the area. It's not car-free living, but it's car-light, with errands still requiring a drive most days. If you're drawn to urban convenience without losing residential feel, this older, tightly-woven pocket delivers exactly that.
