Meyjes Sub.

...and that's what makes Meyjes Sub. such a solid little pocket within Highland Park — it's only two acres, but you've got Eastern Park right there adjacent to you, plus a dozen more green spaces within a mile if you want variety. Downtown Grand Rapids is just six minutes away, which means you're never far from the Grand Rapids Public Schools district's resources, Michigan Street's bars and galleries, or the Fulton Street Farmers Market, yet the subdivision itself sits on quiet residential streets where you can actually breathe. There are 162 restaurants within a mile — taquerias, coffee shops, breweries, the whole spread — and a grocery store about an 11-minute walk, so you're not dependent on the car for everything, though the freeway access means getting out of town takes twenty minutes to the airport or less. It's the kind of place where you get both the convenience and the neighborhood feel without paying for a downtown address.
