Suburban Neighborhood in Detroit, Michigan
Wayne County 48212, 48234
In Grant, there is an abundance of long-standing homes and businesses that have served the community for generations. While a good part of the area is industrial, plenty of unique shops and restaurants lend personality to this Detroit suburb.
Grant's residential areas feature a large number of ranches, bungalows and Colonial-style homes. Many of these homes are designed with sloping roofs, large porches, small lawn spaces and narrow sidewalks. With most houses constructed between the 1920s and '50s, many of the homes are in need of renovations. Home prices begin around $19,000 and can go up to $150,000, depending on how much work the home may need.
Van Dyke Avenue serves as the major roadway in the area, and Grant is located about 10 miles from downtown Detroit.
Students in this neighborhood are zoned for Detroit Public Schools. Marion Law Academy teaches students K-8 and earned a C-minus rating from Niche. Older students interested in the arts can attend the Detroit School of Arts to study disciplines such as vocal and instrumental music, radio/ music production and theater. DSA earned a C-rating and was also counted among the top ten arts high schools in the state of Michigan.
Grant includes restaurants that not only serve delicious food but each carry their own bit of local history. "Marcus Hamburgers is pretty much a local landmark around there. It's been around for a really long time," says Mario Como, a Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway Homeservices Kee Realty SCS who grew up in this area. In fact, the famed burger joint, with its original Marcus Burger, has been satisfying appetites since 1929. Motown Cafe & Grill, named after Detroit's iconic music genre, serves up sandwiches, burgers, seafood dinners and more. Towne Club is Detroit’s original pop -- as in soda, for the non-Midwesterners -- shop, offering an assortment of quirky flavors, such as Michigan Cherry, Honolulu Blue Cream and Tiger Citrus Punch. Venture inside Detroit's oldest bar, the Two Way Inn. Founded in 1876, this bar comes with some interesting local history. While sipping cocktails, patrons might see the ghost of Col. Philetus Norris, a Civil War veteran who built the bar, or perhaps the "Lady in White," a specter who is believed to be his daughter. No need to be alarmed-- the bar is considered by its patrons to be spirited in a warm sense rather than a scary one. Residents can find quality items while shopping Joe Randazzo’s Fruit & Vegetable Market, which has been providing produce to the region for decades.
Kern Playground has a horseshoes court and a playground while Howarth Park also features a playground, along with a basketball court and a baseball field. Syracuse Playgound, located in nearby Farwell, offers lots of fun activities and is one of the largest recreational areas in Michigan.
Residents can check out materials and participate in community events at the Wilder Branch Library, named after children's author Laura Ingalls Wilder. They can also catch the latest flicks at Bel Air Luxury Cinema. The theater was once a single-screen drive-in but has since been updated for a more modern viewing experience.
