The Morton
Strong schools draw families here
Median $6.7M·Walkability 6.3/10·Schools 4.1/10
Sitting right at the center of Downtown Grand Rapids, The Morton puts you steps from restaurants, coffee shops, and transit stops—no car required for the daily stuff. Homes here run around $6.7M, and you're dealing with a 0.36-acre lot on average, which means vertical living in a serious urban core. The walkability score sits at 6.3 overall, but the real story is dining (10/10) and transit access (10/10)—you've got 468 restaurants within a mile and Rosa Parks Circle just a three-minute walk away. Gerald R. Ford Airport is about 20 minutes out, and downtown itself is basically at your door. The condo lifestyle here is straightforward: you're buying proximity and convenience, not land. Kids go to Grand Rapids Public Schools, and if you need a dog park, it's a 12-minute walk. The nearest grocery is less than a mile, and if you're into the water, Butterworth Park Launch is 1.4 miles away. This is urban condo living in a place where you can actually walk to dinner—and where there are plenty of options when you get there.
