Nestled in the heart of downtown Detroit’s most populace residential neighborhood, Capitol Park offers residents an ideal place to get out into the fresh air, relax under a shady tree or take their dogs for a walk. The park stands on the spot of the original Michigan State Capital Building, where it is surrounded by several historic buildings, many interesting eateries and boutique stores. There is a special dog-friendly area where (leashed and accompanied) dogs can frolic on the grass and make friends. The park was renovated and revitalized in 2018 and once all the newly-planted trees have grown a bit more it will provide a much-needed city-center green space.
