Extended Site Diagram

Roosevelt Park is located 1 1/2 miles west of Downtown Detroit between 14th and 16th Streets on Michigan Avenue. The park is

fractured into four pieces by Vernor Highway, forming a formal axis with the Michigan Central Depot.

roosevelt park

In the shadow of Michigan Central Station in Detroit’s historic Corktown neighborhood, Roosevelt Park lies fragmented and unused since the closure of the M.C.S. in the late 1980s. The park’s current state of disrepair – with dead trees, weeds, and overgrown paths – mirrors the abandoned structure that looms over it. Instead of being a space that inspires community interaction, Roosevelt Park remains, as it has for decades, an unlit refuge for the down-and-out.

It’s understandable why some Detroiters seem apathetic about Roosevelt Park’s disrepair: it appears to be nothing more than an appendage of the train station, and a makeshift campground for the homeless. Yet not everyone shares this bleak viewpoint. There remains a bright optimism that the park could serve as a centerpiece for the cultural and economic growth of the neighborhood. Countless local artists and entrepreneurs, and even tourists from as far away as Tokyo and Berlin, continue to visit the M.C.S., photograph it, film it, and dream of a new beginning. Today, successful redevelopment efforts, such as the opening of new restaurants at the corner of Michigan Avenue and 14th Street, have brought throngs of new visitors to the area. And with ongoing transformations of Roosevelt Park , the revitalization of Corktown is in full swing.

Currently, the train station lingers as a remnant of the neighborhood’s and city’s thriving past. No other building in the United States with such historical and architectural significance has been left to degrade to such an extent. Meanwhile, ruins like the Coliseum and the Parthenon are celebrated as icons of human achievement and cultural history. Even without any viable renovation plans on the table, It Is possible to envision the park as a celebration of this architectural masterpiece in its former, current, and future states. The park, with the M.C.S. as a dramatic backdrop, can promote community involvement through public art and cultural events. This is an opportunity to celebrate the M.C.S. – a building like none other – and to create a lively green space in our city, which ranked 43rd of the 50 largest U.S. cities in a recent SustainLane study on urban sustainability.

Local designers and the Greater Corktown Development Corporation have teamed up with small business owners and community members to create a master plan for the park in order to leverage and coordinate volunteering and funding efforts. With the direction of local non-profits and community members, a collaborative of professionals has proposed a phased master plan, which will evolve as the community interacts with the park and defines its use.

Our vision for Roosevelt Park is one that would provide a range of public amenities that would serve the local neighborhood on a daily basis, as well as provide a regional attraction by hosting planned events. These various programmatic elements would also dovetail into the City of Detroit’s Parks and Recreation Department’s mission. In an effort to develop a comprehensive program for the park master plan that balances these desires, members from the community were interviewed and asked to provide input into all programmatic elements. The following pages illustrate excepts from various interviews and summarize the community involvement within the design process.

RICHMOND HAWKINS

As director of Southwest Business District Association, Kathy hopes the park will be more accessible to pedestrians and bicyclists. She is hopeful that the ampitheater will showcase Detroit’s vibrant, diverse community.

Nathan has a background in Urban and Regional Planning and works passionately with Young Detroit Builders. He believes that a diverse set of activities will not only appeal to all us in Detroit, but assist in involving an audiance from Metro Detroit and beyond.

Charles and Karima, owners of Le Petit Zinc, desire open green spaces. Flowers, greenery, and trees are imperative to children’s development and awareness of the natural environment. For adults and child alike, the senses are directly affected by being surrounded by open greenery. By providing access to parks, we maintain our connection to nature.

Richmond sees the benefit in both an active space for kids to play, along with a serene environment for adults to relax. Richmond is a Vice President at Detroit Commerce and helped develope The Gesu Green.

Meghan and Ryan moved from Chicago to Detroit to start a family and enhance their careers. They love the uniqueness of Detroit and believe it can continue to grow. Their number one priority is a safe, inspiring public space for their children.

The masterplan design for Roosevelt Park is a phased proposal which responds to the desires of the community, the potential for continued development along Michigan Avenue, and the adaptive re-use of the historic Michigan Central Depot.

Among the initial implementations of the master plan, we propose building an amphitheater, installing a public work of art, trimming trees, and lighting the park. The amphitheater will be formed from a series of shifts in the ground plane, utilizing the existing earth along with excess earth from nearby community projects that would otherwise end up in a landfill. The stage will allow for public performances, instantly breathe new life into the space, and offer both a physical and symbolic platform for further fundraising efforts for the park. When it is not in use, the grounds leading up to the stage will provide ample family-friendly green space for exercise and relaxation.

Subsequent pieces of the masterplan involve the installation of elements that will increase activity in the park by building soccer fields, playscapes, and a skate and bike park. Conversations have begun with Tony Hawk and SLAP magazine in order to acquire additional funding. Todd Mistor, one of the City of Detroit’s foresters, has slated five dead trees to be removed and dried in a solar kiln by Tree of Heaven Work Shop at no cost. Over 100 lights donated from the Greater Corktown Development Corporation will be arranged to create a light sculpture, which will both inspire and increase safety in the park.

The community has also expressed the desire for serene spaces for adults to relax. A native landscape proposal offers a respite from the busy Michigan Avenue thoroughfare. A community green parking lot with 50 spaces adjacent to the park is currently being built by local business owners and will be a wonderful supplement to the proposed reorganization of streets and parking around and through the park. In order to unify the Park, the obsolete boulevard formed by the eight lane Vernor Highway, will be closed. While the formal axis to the train station will remain in the design as a pedestrian thoroughfare, automotive traffic will be diverted around the Park. This creative move will strengthen the functionality of the public urban space as well as greatly improve pedestrian safety.

The implementation strategy for phase 1 of Roosevelt Park revolves around a series of small to medium scale interventions that fit within the larger framework of the master plan. Each of these individual interventions is supported by a specific grant, donation, or volunteer effort from the community, city, or local and regional businesses. The final designs for each parcel emerge as funding and or donated materials are secured. Since the inception of this master plan in the Summer of 2008, a number of these initiatives have been designed and completed.

The phase 2 implementation of the larger athletic park amenities would be supplemented by the City of Detroit’s Parks and Recreation department funding and facilities.

1st Intervention: completed Summer 2008

The initial intervention was implemented through the support of Daimler Financial, who provided a financial grant of $10,000 as well as a crew of 60 volunteer workers for one day. The volunteer effort provided much of the preparatory site work, such as dead tree removal, garbage and shrub clean-up, and preliminary plantings. In addition, the grant yielded the first design element of the park in the form of the sculptural planted island across Michigan Avenue.

The large cement triangle in the middle of the Michigan Ave./14th St./Vernor Highway intersection has been replaced with a public space from which to view the park and train station. This helps to define the axis leading to the M.C.S. and extend the park into the community for broader interaction. Cars heading out from the city center pass across this access, between the train station axis and this triangle- occupying, momentarily, the space of the park while still in their cars.

In conjunction with Daimler Financial’s grant, this intervention was completed with $50,000 of in-kind donations.

2nd Intervention: Completed June 2009

The second intervention consists of a reflective garden space situated on the crescent shaped parcel of land at the foot of the Michigan Central Depot. The design draws inspiration from the dramatic presence of the M.C.D. by transposing the vertical structural geometries of the facade onto the horizontal groundplane. The focal points of this landscaped element utilize a series of large granite paving slabs donated by the City of Detroit, along with an additional financial commitment of $30,000 and 60 volunteers from Daimler Financial for construction. In addition to the stone features, native tall grasses will form intimate spaces for users to relax and view the building.

In conjunction with Daimler Financial’s grant, this intervention was completed with a $13,500 cash grant from neighborhood restaurant, Slows BBQ, as well as $250,000 of in-kind donations.

Future Interventions

Funding, materials, and volunteer commitments are currently being sought for the next series of park elements. The largest of these is the stage and seating area to be located in the central boulevard space on axis with the M.C.D. Subsequent pieces would be a new bus stop on Michigan Avenue and a light sculpture/pavilion incorporating 30 ballard lights being donated by the Greater Corktown Development Corporation.
