Plainfield Avenue cuts through North Park like the neighborhood's spine, lined with early twentieth-century homes and midcentury ranches that give way to tree-canopied streets leading down toward the Grand River. Riverside Park—over one hundred acres of it—sits at the edge, with nearly a mile of riverfront, trails winding through the grounds, and an accessible kayak and canoe launch that actually gets used. You're eight minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, which means you can taste the city without living inside its mouth.
