Detroit Tigers baseball
Take in a ballgame at the Tigers' marvelous ballpark, with its magnificent views of the downtown skyline, a fountain beyond the center field wall, and tiger statues that growl every time the Tigers hit a home run. The concourse beyond left-center field has statues of famous Tigers players, including Willie Horton, Hank Greenberg, and Ty Cobb, and there's also a small Ferris wheel and a carousel for the kids.
Detroit Lions football
Just across Brush Street from Comerica Park is Ford Field, home to Detroit's NFL football team, the Lions.
This five-acre park connects Detroit's theater district to its financial center. The park is home to several statues and monuments, such as the Thomas Edison Memorial Fountain, a statue of former Detroit mayor, William C. Maybury, a statue of Hazen S. Pingree, former mayor of Detroit and former governor of Michigan, and the Russel Alger Memorial Fountain. Across the street from the park is the Victorian Gothic-styled Central United Methodist Church. The new headquarters for Quicken Loans is planned near this park. However, due to the park's proximity to the theater district, Comerica Park, and Ford Field, the fortunes of these skyscrapers are brighter, as many undergoing or are planned for renovation. Grand Circus Park has its own station on the people mover, at Park Street, near Woodward Avenue.
