With so many options to choose from, finding a place to call home in Grand Rapids can be a daunting task. As you begin your apartment search, questions abound:
- Which floor plan suits me best?
- What amenities are available?
- Where will I park?
Then, there’s another question — one that plays a key role in determining your day-to-day life as a resident.
Many factors are involved in the answer to this question, but ultimately, it’s the connections and bonds formed between people that make all the difference. To help establish and sustain these connections, we host a variety of events at The Hendrik, Barley Flats, Fulton Place and The Morton that are thoughtfully designed to bring our residents closer together as we help support the creation of strong, tight-knit communities. We also plug in to community-centered events to ensure ample opportunities for our residents to feel fully engaged with their neighborhoods.
Whether it’s coming together and enjoying game night at Go Java or simply enjoying hockey night in GR with the Griffins, we are committed to fostering an environment of engagement where friendships and communities can grow in tandem. And as we provide ample opportunities for our residents to connect with one another, we also seek to further connect them with the great city of Grand Rapids and everything it has to offer.
In the coming months, we will continue to bring our residents together in unique ways.
