Nelson Ave. Sub. sits right in the heart of Alger Heights, where the whole neighborhood is basically walkable, with a grocery store about a ten-minute walk away and restaurants—24 of them within a mile—scattered throughout. Downtown Grand Rapids is eleven minutes by car, and the airport's about sixteen.
