Driving or walking through Park Side Plat, you move quickly through a three-acre grid where modest lots sit close to one another, each roughly a sixth of an acre. The subdivision's real geography, though, extends outward: Lincoln Park is a two-minute walk, and you're steps from transit that threads toward downtown Grand Rapids in about five minutes. A coffee shop is four minutes on foot, restaurants cluster within a mile—over a hundred of them—and there's almost nothing you can't reach without a car, even if you wanted to. The median home here runs around $322,000, modest by contemporary standards.
