Mountain views between fruit trees farms and a trendy downtown
Northeast Grand Junction is an upbeat area separating a trendy downtown from the fruit farms and deserts of the outskirts, with views of the Grand Mesa, the largest plateaued mountain on Earth. "Pretty much any type of outdoor recreation that you want to do, you can do in Grand Junction because we’re surrounded by the mountains," says Taylor Knight, a lifelong resident of Grand Junction and Realtor with Coldwell Banker Distinctive Properties. "Within an hour, you can be skiing, fishing, camping, hiking or ATV riding on the Grand Mesa. That’s why I think people fall in love with Grand Junction.”

Shopping downtown or racing at GJ Motor Speedway
North Avenue cuts through the bottom half of Northeast Grand Junction, taking traffic past shopping centers with chain restaurants and department stores, while Orchard Avenue leads to locally owned shops and art galleries downtown. After a day of shopping, those looking to speed past their friends and family can rent go-karts at The Grand Junction Motor Speedway. When the race is won, congratulations are in order at Golosas Mexican Sandwiches, a traditional diner that combines burritos with burgers using fresh ingredients in a traditional setting. Dinner is served at Koi Ramen & Sushi, a colorful Asian eatery with wall art and neon lights. For groceries, there’s Safeway, is a supermarket off Patterson Road, or a Walmart Supercenter on North Avenue.
