Located comfortably between the inner suburb of East Grand Rapids
and the resurgent East Hills neighborhood, Eastown is the seat of the
city's alternative, hipster scene. Some refer to the area as the
'Greenwich Village of Grand Rapids.'
The district also is known as the city's gathering place. With
coffee shops like Kava House, blues bars like Billy's, and
one-of-a-kind restaurants like Yesterdog, Sammy's, Bombay Cuisine, and
Wolfgang's, Eastown draws an eclectic mix people from all over the city
for breakfast, lunch, and night life.
It's also the only neighborhood in GR that boasts its own MySpace site. Click here to check it out.
