The Fitzgerald
Solid value in a growing area
Median $487K·Walkability 6.3/10·Schools 4.2/10
Look, you're literally steps from downtown Grand Rapids—like, 0.7 miles—which means the Van Andel Arena, Division Avenue galleries, and somewhere around 492 restaurants are your actual backyard. The Fitzgerald itself is a contemporary brick-and-stone condo development on about an acre in Oldtown-Heartside, and homes here run around $409K. The nearest restaurant is a two-minute walk. Coffee is three minutes. Transit is literally steps away. You've got Veteran's Memorial Park right next door and 32 parks within a mile, which sounds excessive until you realize you're in an urban neighborhood where green space actually matters. The nearest grocery is under a mile out, and if you're the type who owns a boat, Butterworth Park Launch is 1.5 miles away—about a ten-minute drive. Gerald R. Ford Airport is 21 minutes, so you're not stranded when you need to leave. Grand Rapids Public Schools serves the area. The walkability here is a 6.3 overall, which is honest: dining and transit are maxed out (you can walk to nearly anything food-related), but fitness and general errands require a bit more intention. That's not a flaw in an urban condo community—that's just the reality of density. You're trading lawn maintenance for proximity.
