If someone asks where Verplank Sub is, just say it's walkable distance to a restaurant and a coffee shop, with Lawrence Park a three-minute stroll away. The subdivision sits on three acres in the West Central Avenue & South Lee Street Area, ringed by seven parks within a mile and thirty restaurants within the same radius—the kind of density that means you're never far from something to do. A grocery store lands about a mile and a quarter out, and downtown Grand Rapids is roughly half an hour by car.
