It is a shame that I couldn't find better pics, but Grand Rapids' Heritage Hill District is really beautiful.
The Hill area had become increasingly dilapidated over the years, but in the mid 80's the city offered low-interest loans to those who wanted to restore those weathered properties to their former glory. Between people taking advantage of said offer, and the resurgence of the downtown area, there are now miles of spectacular neighborhoods- one street after another- from downtown to the affluent East Grand Rapids area.
