Capitol Park : Historic Heart of Detroit EPUB
by Jack Dempsey
EPUB
Description
Capitol Park is the only city park in America where a state's first governor is buried.
It's the birthplace of democracy in Michigan. Underground Railroad site. Streetcar and transit hub. Urban canyon. A block north of Detroit's iconic Coney Island restaurants.
A symbol of the city's late twentieth-century decay, now a key part of its revitalization in a new millennium.
Jack Dempsey, award-winning author of "Michigan and the Civil War" and president of the Michigan Historical Commission, uncovers tales of a uniquely inspirational public space that epitomizes the ups and downs of Detroit's three centuries.
