Lincoln Street Art Park

Amazing art and living spaces. Came to play in a Bike Polo match, but found so much more. There is so much to see and explore here, a single review is only going to scratch the surface. Start with the art. Many wall murals take you from high-art to graffiti. Then there are studio spaces. And living spaces And a barber shop... and a pizza joint. A Detroit treasure no doubt. Highly recommend.

Such a cool place for on a weekday where you can go inside the huge door!!

colorful street, paradise to photographers. I had different experience with feeling alone in this art gallery, I noticed only two couple was walking with their dog. No one to disturb for my photography may be this is not much famous place. I don’t had any security issues. These paintings are very colorful and something very special but I am not expert to explain that feeling. I think, during winter, it would be more colorful with white background. Thanks for all painters.

Very interesting wall art, we enjoyed walking thru and taking pictures!

Went at night when the tower light is visible. Unless you have a bright moon, it's better to go in the day when you can see the bridge more clearly; super cool! A little less taken care of in some areas, no usable restroom. Some sculptures are sharp and places are cement and rough; please keep in mind when enjoying the creative view!

Worth a visit!! Super cool space 😎

I used to love this place. It's a completely gentrified rip-off these days and I mean that from the bottom of my DETROIT loving heart. Worst ex you ever. I'LL STAND ON THIS.

📌Google Guide Review 📌: I love this place for the memories and art. The old Fire Breathing Red Bull dragon and Fisher Pipeline photo opps. Great place if you love graffiti art and urban vibes. BONUS! During the day they have a recycling center on site. Perfect for Amazon boxes to Almond Milk cartons.

Cool and interesting spot! Large painted murals and some structural art as well. Pretty much no one around on a Tuesday evening. I had an event close by, and walked around the art park afterwards. The building seems like it'd make for a super cool indoor/outdoor event space! It's huge, and the art is really fun. It all looked fairly new/fresh - sounds like the art is updated over time. Would also make a great spot for photography.

I'm a local photographer, so finding dope spots to shoot is UBER important. I recently completed a retro 90s shoot, utilizing the LSAP. It's an amazing spot to visit on its own, but shooting there was amazing. The down side was having these mental midgets walking into my shot (seemingly on purpose, because they saw us shooting with lights and over 8 models, stylists and an assistant), but it's a free art park, so there wasn't really anything I could say. I've attached a few of the shots here. DEF worth checking out and exploring if you love art!

If you like unique art experiences, head to Lincoln Street Art Park near the Motown Museum. Street parking is plentiful. Follow the graffiti art to a walk way that takes you to the railroad tracks for a beautiful view of painted abandoned buildings and the Detroit skyline. There are also sculptures made from recycled items, but they were behind fences when we went in August 2021.

Dope, if you like art and graffiti, just dope. And such a good idea for dilapidated areas

Beautiful Artwork one of my favorite places to take pictures. I like creative background scenery and at Lincoln Street Art Park you get just that.

Always something new popping up and if your into street art it should definitely be on your list of places to visit

I have been here twice exploring many of the paintings and graffiti. Some of the previous art has been painted over. It's definitely worth a visit.

Came on a wintry day with snow all around. Felt apocalyptic. I love art spaces though so it was a must see.

What's not to love about this place? A.) It has a bonfire! B.) There's a cobblestone pathway that leads you to the awesomely amazing graffiti murals scattered all around the underpass! C.) A gigantic T-Rex, made from recycled materials (lawn chairs, milk jugs, etc) greets you as you enter! D.) There's a mini outdoor library - feel free to borrow or exchange books! E.) Located on the border of Woodbridge & New Center, makes it a central stop for anyone visiting the city! Lincoln Street Sculpture Garden is uniquely Detroit! What do i mean? Well, the new kid on the art block has joined the rankings of DIY art installations like Heidelberg Project and Monumental Kitty, where it creates a little something something in an area that seems almost lifeless. It truly is a harmonious blend between Art, Grunge, Nature and Graffiti; in a way, capturing the very essence of Detroit!

In a moment of pure Yelp recklessness, I forgot to check into this place during a recent visit to Detroit....but there is good reason. Having arrived way too early in Detroit on a sunny Sunday afternoon, I went to the Speed Dial and phoned up a local friend. 'Come and get me and show me some parts of Detroit that the rest of the world doesn't know about.' Maybe it was the urgency of my voice, maybe it was dumb luck, but the person at the other end of the wire quickly agreed and complied. We roared off down the streets, finding little treasures here and there, every one of them New and Exciting and decidedly unDetroit-ish. Being close to the end of the string, we set a course for my hotel in the 'burbs, content that we had accomplished a mission. Hey, what are all of those cars parked on the side of the road? Let's check it out! We stumbled upon what looked like a giant neighborhood block party. As we got closer, we saw a massive dinosaur metal sculpture taking life, a forklift gracefully lifting the top of the body onto the base. This alone was worth the trip, but Other Things were afoot. Things we needed to uncover and discover. There was a tent. And where there is a tent, there is alcohol. Beer kegs and wine bottles aplenty. Now here is the kicker....there was nobody in the area looking like they were collecting money! Free for the taking! Help yourself. A bit further on, there was a bonfire blazing. And further still, a large collection of people chowing down at tables. And a line. In true lemming form, we queued up, having no clue where the line would lead us. Eventually, we asked: What the hell is going on here? A local pizza joint was throwing a party for its 5 year anniversary. That is a disclosure of the facts. Now comes the meat: The Vibe! I'm all about some vibe. If it doesn't vibe, it doesn't hold my attention. Vibe testing is a way of life for me, everything has to pass the Internal James R VibeTest before it goes into Permanent RAM between my ears. Listen carefully: Lincoln Street Sculpture Garden comes in a close second to the most vibe-o-licious place on the face of the Earth: Kunsthaus Tacheles in Berlin, Germany. NEVER within the confines of the Contiguous 48 have I ever witnessed ANYTHING that even approaches the vibe factor that this place exudes! The glorious mix of humanity was complete in its completeness. In short, imagine a demographic and it was here, peacefully basking in the moment. No pretense, no loud boisterous discussions. Just vibe. In massive quantities. The amount of trouble which I would endure to return here is not measurable. I would fly on USAir and crawl on my hands and knees through a Detroit Winter Storm to once again bask in the vibe that is here. Just think about it: A huge group of people, just being. No hassles, no plastic badge adorned RentACop for A Day. Just people being themselves and enjoying the here and now. The rest of the country should take its cue from Lincoln Street Sculpture Garden and emulate, nee, flat out RIP OFF, the thing that takes place here. So fellow Yelpers, forgive my faux pas of not checking in. I was truly overcome by the moment, literally speechless in the glow. Thank you so much, Detroit, for showing me What is Good and restoring faith that we as a nation can possibly get this right. 50000 bajillion stars. Just go here.

This a great tucked away gem! We have been to many events here, and have lived every single one. A lot of love has gone into this art park!

Cool place! I've made a vow to discover my city in days that are above 60 degrees. I'll be back with a model to have fun with the amazing graffiti. Can't wait!

The fact that This concept was made into a reality really effected me when I drove by I had no idea it existed. My Company @FactoryDuMonde is striving to do something similar. We commend you! please keep doing this!

If you drive by this street, it's worth if if you continue and drive to Grand River Creative Corridor as well. We just drove by and took pictures from the car, we didn't get out of the car. My kids thought some of the graffiti were pretty awesome.

Super cool place! Saw a few local bands perform there - nice wide open spaces, interesting art. Cool vibe!
