Hunter Park East, located between Michigan Avenue and Kalamazoo Street, is a residential and park-adjacent Lansing neighborhood with tree-lined blocks and a classic grid of streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Michigan Ave corridor near Foster Park, where corner storefronts, murals, and steady foot traffic set an everyday rhythm. Housing leans toward early- to mid-century single-family homes with deep lots, plus small multifamily buildings along the busier edges. Foster Park’s fields and playgrounds shape daily routines, while nearby riverfront paths add a green counterpoint to the streetscape. For culture and a night-out anchor, The Avenue and the Allen Neighborhood Center sit close by, with the Lansing River Trail tying the area into the wider city.

R-6A
Urban Residential District
The intent of the R-6 Urban Residential District is to preserve the historic character of Lansing's most urban neighborhoods maintaining the scale of medium-density single-family detached residences. These neighborhoods feature small lots, early 20th century-built homes often with alleys and rear loading garages. Infill development in this district should respect the historic single-family character. Typical character types include Four-Square, Craftsman, and Queen Anne vernacular types. Front-facing gable and hip roofs are typical. The intent of sub-district R-6B is to integrate attached residential units into appropriate locations at the perimeter of established residential neighborhoods. Attached residential units are intended to provide a physical transition from the adjacent busier street types, and/or non-residential uses to the purely residential neighborhood.
