Grand Circus Park

Very busy area. More of a walk thru area. A small park across the street from Comerica Stadium and Ford Field downtown Detroit. There is a couple statues and water fountain. There is a parking garage underground. So they have the entrance there as well. It was neat and cared for. Note it’s a very small park. Benches and circular walkway.

We walked to this park from the river side. The vibe of this area was crazy, probably because of the Lions game. The streets were clean and there were lovely wall paintings, statues, and stores.

It's beautiful. The TIGERS were home for a 3 game set against my other hometown team The PADRES.

Detroit is a great place to visit and this park is no exception. Vibrant, beautiful architecture. Will be returning(from Amherstburg near Windsor)

We take the A2D2 bus from Ann Arbor to Detroit for the Pistons game, and Detroit beat the Timberwolves (Yippee). The bus drops you off, right across the street, and we just walk to Little Ceasars arena.

the city is very beautiful in the center. there are many parks in which it is pleasant to walk, a very colorful city. I liked the train ride around the city.

Grand Circus Park back to Judge Augustus B. Woodward's master plan to rebuild Detroit after the 1805 devastating fire. The park was meant to be a full circle - the "circus" the name - but rising land values north of Adams Street led property owners to resist selling, leaving the park as a half-moon bisected by Woodward Avenue. It links Detroit's theater district to its financial core, and over the decades, it has hosted everything from presidential eulogies to public protests. In fact, General George Armstrong Custer once delivered a eulogy there for Abraham Lincoln before thousands of mourners. The park is adorned with statuary and fountains that speak to Detroit's civic pride. The eastern half features the Russell Alger Memorial Fountain, designed by Henry Bacon (who also designed the Lincoln Memorial), with a Roman allegorical figure sculpted by Daniel Chester French. Nearby stands the statue of Mayor William Cotter Maybury. The western half is anchored by the Edison Memorial Fountain and the statue of Mayor Hazen Pingree, a populist reformer whose legacy still looms large. It's a layered space - literally, as there are parking garages below - with memorials and a green park. Plenty of benches and tables and a free wifi. And a very strong police presence during the daytime and after Tigers games.

If you're going to Detroit, park at the Grand Circus Underground parking. It is conveniently located for all activities. Reserve your spot with the Spot Hero app. Simple, Bam! Enjoy!
