Roosevelt Park 2405 Vernor Highway, Detroit, MI 48216

"This park has been revitalized. It is steeped in a century of history. Many generations of people have roots here. If this park could speak for itself, what a story it could tell! Of all the urban renewal projects that happen, this one is very special; people today and the future generations will benefit from its simple, clean beauty. Visit it when you visit Corktown. If you visit in the spring and you love gardens, the whispers of an elegant past and the scent of a bright future will subtlely be there for you."

"Very well done after years of vacancy. A great spot to have lunch while taking in the views of remodeled Michigan Central Train Station. Phone charging stations and bike repair stations are available and free to use."

"Beautifully done! I remember driving by here as a kid visiting Detroit. Now that I’ve moved here, I had to visit with my son. We got mangonadas from Mexicantown and then came over to swing."

"Have been living in Michigan my whole life and the train station has always been a well known landmark. Everyone for sure thought it would eventually be getting tore down. I am so happy they decided to restore it instead and am even more excited to see how much value it brings to the inner city! Have been here a few times since they have started the construction and man are they making progress! Thanks for all your hard work!"

"We have children in the area and love seeing the improvements to the Corktown area of Detroit since Ford Motor purchased and in process of renovating the old train station. Our recent visit to the area included Roosevelt Park which is a beautiful work in progress. Very nice landscaping, flowers, trees and picnic area. We love the transformation, and it will be great see the completed project. Amazing work so far, check out this beautiful park."
