Quiet, older neighborhood near sought after Indian Village
Four miles northeast of downtown Detroit is the Pingree Park neighborhood, named for the 18-acre green space in the center. The namesake park might steal the show, but the affordability and walkability are the highlights of this quiet, older neighborhood. Like the historic Indian Village neighborhood to the south, Pingree Park contains a collection of early 20th-century homes, but on a smaller and less expensive scale. “The homes share the same amenities as Indian Village for a fraction of the cost. You go down the street and you’ll find million-dollar homes,” says Charles Ryan, a Realtor with Keller Williams Home who works in the neighborhood.
Pingree Park is within walking distance of retail and restaurant options on Kercheval Ave.
Run, walk, or bike along the new bike paths running down Warren Ave and through Chandler Park.

Restored turn-of-the-century homes
This residential area saw a construction boom between 1900 and 1920. The remaining turn-of-the-century homes include American Foursquares, bungalows, Colonial Revivals and Tudor Revivals. Though homes sit on compact lots, many have spacious front porches for gathering with neighbors or enjoying the view of the park across the street. Unlike Indian Village, this is not a designated historic district emphasizing historic preservation. However, many homes in the neighborhood have been updated while maintaining original features such as hardwood floors. Prices range from $100,000 to $275,000. Streets are lined by sidewalks and older trees, which help lend an air of maturity to the neighborhood.

Updated Pingree Park is a community gathering space
Pingree Park has been a community gathering space since the neighborhood's early days. In 2017 and 2018, Project EverGreen completed a two-phase improvement project that cleaned up the park and added new features. Today, the north half of the park contains a new walking trail that loops around the flat, grassy space, with lots of shade from tree cover. The park's southern half is devoted to sports facilities, including two basketball courts, a soccer field, two baseball diamonds and a playground. Mack Avenue Community Church hosts volunteer-led athletic leagues for kids ages 5 to 15 at the park, including a summer soccer camp - it’s one of nearly a dozen churches in and adjacent to the neighborhood.
Residents enjoy living in close proximity to Pingree Park's extensive walking paths.

Sister Pie serves unique, homemade creations
Small businesses are clustered together about 1.5 miles south near Indian Village. "You have a lot of walkable amenities. In some neighborhoods, you have to go so far to find stuff like that," Ryan says. Sister Pie is a small corner bakery that uses nontraditional flavor combinations for its pies, cookies, breakfast and lunch. Locals enjoy peach plum cardamom streusel, peanut butter and jelly vegan scones and other changing menu items from the outside tables. Next door, Marrow Butcher Shop and Restaurant provides an elevated dining experience, using farm-to-table ingredients for its creations, such as steak with house-made fries, greens and seasonal aioli. It also offers a five-course tasting dinner for $90 per person. About a mile west of Pingree Park, Sav-Mart Marketplace has all the typical supermarket selections.
