Beautifully Revamped Roosevelt Park Unites Corktown and Mexicantown

On Thursday, June 29, Mayor Duggan joined with local and federal officials and community members to unveil the completely redesigned Roosevelt Park along Michigan Avenue. The 13-acre park, which sits in front of the new Michigan Central campus, previously had been undeveloped open land divided by six lanes of asphalt roadway. Today, thanks to $5 million from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), it is a beautifully designed, European-style public park that serves as a gateway to surrounding neighborhoods and a growing network of nearby public greenspaces.

For years, Roosevelt Park had been an underutilized focal point within the Corktown, Mexicantown, and Hubbard-Richard neighborhoods in Southwest Detroit. The renovations of the new unified Roosevelt Park have been designed to help bridge the Mexican and Irish cultures that flourish in the Corktown and Mexicantown neighborhoods the park borders.

“Five years ago, this was empty land with no landscaping and no particular use, sitting in front of a vacant train station,” said Mayor Mike Duggan. “Today, thanks to President’ Biden’s American Rescue Plan Act, we have one of the most beautiful urban parks anywhere in front of a restored architectural gem. I believe Roosevelt Park will become a regional destination.”

Roosevelt Park’s new design features various entrances to help connect multiple communities and access points while also maintaining a welcoming and engaging atmosphere. The park also has flexible spaces that can act as a venue for various types of events ranging from picnics, playscapes, Instagram-worthy locations, and programming with community partners.

The renovations came following the City’s receiving of American Rescue Plan Act funding (ARPA). ARPA was passed by Congress in 2021 as part of the COVID-19 relief plan and has since worked to provide economic relief during and following the COVID-19 pandemic.

Detroit received a total of $826.7 million from ARPA; $5 million of which was used for the Roosevelt Park renovations. The additional funding needed to complete the park’s renovations came from the City’s general fund.

“Mayor Duggan’s use of American Rescue Plan resources to strengthen neighborhoods and communities to make them more livable for working families and more attractive to job creators is a powerful example of President Biden’s belief in the power of Investing in America.” Said Gene Sperling, Senior Advisor to President Biden, overseeing ARPA. “We congratulate the Mayor and the City Council for using these American Rescue Plan funds to make transformative, lasting investments in Detroit.”

New Design an outcome of extensive community engagement
Community engagement was a top priority when planning the renovation process for Roosevelt Park. The Greater Corktown Framework Plan identified Roosevelt Park as a priority for neighborhood residents in 2020. Specifically, the Framework Plan recommended re-routing Vernor Highway away from the center of the park to make a unified space and safer pedestrian crossings both around the park and at Michigan Avenue.

“When I moved to Detroit 32 years ago, I drove through Roosevelt Park every day for three years and every day I’d think what a mess this road system is,” said Brad Dick, Chief Operating Officer for the City of Detroit. “I never thought I’d see the day where I could actually do something about it. Now, we have a beautifully designed park that fits the character of Detroit.”

Beyond the renovation of Roosevelt Park, the Greater Corktown Framework Plan outlined a short and long-term plan that promotes inclusive & equitable growth of Detroit’s oldest established neighborhood, while preserving its unique character, cultural heritage & integrity.

The City worked extensively to conduct community engagement in Southwest Detroit’s Hubbard-Richard, Corktown, and Mexicantown neighborhoods in preparation for the unification of Roosevelt Park. Before construction, a community festival was held to kick off community engagement efforts. After, Community engagement meetings occurred throughout the planning process to ensure community input was implemented within the park.

Following a community survey in August of 2021, the results reflected top priorities for the park being basic infrastructure, trees, and landscaping. Architects then made it a priority to bring the communities vision to life and prioritized surrounding communities and a unified Roosevelt Park, while respecting the park’s history and legacy, and creating an iconic park for the present and future.

“The unification of Roosevelt Park has created a beautiful green space in District 6 for residents and businesses alike – and I can’t wait to see how it’s activated,” explained Councilwoman Gabriela Santiago-Romero. “As the gateway to and from both the Mexicantown and Corktown neighborhoods, this new park will aid in strengthening the connection and fabric of our vibrant community.”

“Green spaces are essential for the health and well-being of our residents, and this project will not only enhance the beauty of our City but also provide a safe and welcoming space for families to enjoy,” explained Council President Mary Sheffield. “I’m excited to see this project come to fruition and looking forward to the positive impact it will have on our community”.

Historic Michigan Central Station stands tall at Roosevelt Park.
Adding to the rich history of Roosevelt Park, it sits before the historic Michigan Central Station, which had sat vacant since 1988. In 2018, Ford Motor Company announced that it was acquiring the longtime symbol of the city’s decline and restoring it to its former glory, not just as office space but as a destination for retail, arts and culture and community space. Next year, the train station will reopen its doors for the first time in almost 40 years. When it does, the renovated depot be the centerpiece a 30-acre innovation district.

“Coupled with the Joe Louis and Southwest greenways, Roosevelt Park will be another welcoming invitation for all Detroiters to be a part of what’s happening here at Michigan Central,” said Cornetta Lane-Smith, Director of Community Engagement for Michigan Central. “Every stage of this redevelopment has been designed and built with community in mind, and our events and programming will reflect the great and rich history of our city and surrounding neighborhoods. We can’t wait to open our doors and share what we believe will be something that all Detroiters will be proud to be part of.”

Roosevelt Park is now ready for the public to enjoy, with the new unified space being one to foster community in the area.

El Maravillosamente renovado parque Roosevelt comunica Corktown y Mexicantown

El jueves 29 de junio, el alcalde Duggan se unió a funcionarios locales y federales y miembros de la comunidad para inaugurar el Parque Roosevelt, completamente rediseñado a lo largo de la Avenida Michigan. El parque de 13 acres, se encuentra frente al nuevo campus de la Estación Central, anteriormente había sido un terreno baldío dividido por seis carriles de carretera asfaltada. Hoy, gracias a $5 millones de la Ley del Plan de Rescate Estadounidense (ARPA), es un parque público de estilo europeo bellamente diseñado, que sirve como puerta de entrada a los vecindarios circundantes y a una red creciente de espacios verdes cercanos.

Durante años, el parque Roosevelt fue un punto focal subutilizado dentro de los vecindarios de Corktown, Mexicantown y Hubbard-Richard en el suroeste de Detroit. Las renovaciones del parque, han sido diseñadas para ayudar a unir las culturas latinas e irlandesa que florecen en los vecindarios de Corktown y Mexicantown que rodean al parque.

“Hace cinco años, este era un terreno baldío sin jardinería ni uso particular, ubicado frente a una estación de tren desocupada”, dijo el alcalde Mike Duggan. “Hoy, gracias a la Ley del Plan de Rescate Estadounidense del presidente Biden, tenemos uno de los parques urbanos más hermosos, frente a una joya arquitectónica restaurada. Creo que el parque Roosevelt se convertirá en un destino regional”.

El nuevo diseño del parque Roosevelt presenta varias entradas para ayudar a conectar múltiples comunidades y puntos de acceso, al mismo tiempo que mantiene una atmósfera acogedora y atractiva. El parque también cuenta con espacios flexibles que pueden ser un lugar de celebración de eventos: picnics, juegos, paisajes dignos de Instagram y reuniones con socios de la comunidad.

Las renovaciones se produjeron después de que la Ciudad recibiera fondos de la Ley del Plan de Rescate Estadounidense (American Rescue Plan Act, ARPA). ARPA fue aprobada por el Congreso en 2021 como parte del plan de alivio de COVID-19 y desde entonces ha trabajado para brindar alivio económico durante y después de la pandemia de COVID-19.

Detroit recibió un total de $826,7 millones de ARPA; $ 5 millones de los cuales se utilizaron para las renovaciones del parque Roosevelt. Los fondos adicionales necesarios para completar las renovaciones del parque provinieron del fondo general de la Ciudad.

“El uso que hace el alcalde Duggan de los recursos del Plan de Rescate Estadounidense, para fortalecer los vecindarios y las comunidades para las familias trabajadoras y más atractivos para los creadores de empleos es un poderoso ejemplo de la creencia del presidente Biden en el poder de invertir en Estados Unidos”. Dijo Gene Sperling, asesor principal del presidente Biden, que supervisa ARPA. “Felicitamos al alcalde y al Concejo Municipal por utilizar estos fondos del Plan de Rescate Estadounidense para realizar inversiones transformadoras y duraderas en Detroit”.

El diseño es resultado de la participación comunitaria

La participación de la comunidad fue una de las principales prioridades al planificar el proceso de renovación del parque Roosevelt. El Plan Framework del Gran Corktown identificó el parque Roosevelt como una prioridad para los residentes de las colonias aledañas en 2020. Específicamente, el Plan Framework recomendó desviar Vernor Highway del centro del parque para hacer un espacio unificado y cruces peatonales más seguros tanto alrededor del parque como en la Avenida Míchigan.

“Cuando me mudé a Detroit hace 32 años, manejé por el parque Roosevelt todos los días durante tres años y siempre pensaba en lo desordenado que es este sistema de carreteras”, dijo Brad Dick, director de operaciones de la ciudad de Detroit. “Nunca pensé que vería el día en que podría hacer algo al respecto. Ahora, tenemos un parque bellamente diseñado que encaja con el carácter de Detroit”.

Más allá de la renovación del parque, el Plan Marco de Greater Corktown describió un plan a corto y largo plazo que promueve el crecimiento inclusivo y equitativo del vecindario establecido más antiguo de Detroit, al tiempo que preserva su carácter único, herencia cultural e integridad.

La Ciudad trabajó grandemente para llevar a cabo la participación comunitaria en los vecindarios Hubbard-Richard, Corktown y Mexicantown del suroeste de Detroit, para organizar la unificación del parque Roosevelt. Antes de la construcción, se llevó a cabo un festival comunitario para dar inicio a los esfuerzos de participación de la comunidad, después de eso hubo varias reuniones a lo largo del proceso de planificación para garantizar que se implementaran los aportes de la comunidad dentro del parque.

Luego de una encuesta comunitaria en agosto de 2021, los resultados reflejaron que los principales objetivos para el parque eran la infraestructura básica, los árboles y el paisajismo; por lo que los arquitectos le dieron prioridad a dar vida a la visión de las comunidades y priorizaron a las comunidades circundantes y un Parque Roosevelt unificado, respetando la historia y el legado del parque, y creando un parque icónico para el presente y el futuro.

“La unificación de Roosevelt Park ha creado un hermoso espacio verde en el Distrito 6 para residentes y negocios por igual, y no puedo esperar para ver cómo se activa… Como puerta de entrada para los vecindarios de Mexicantown y Corktown, este nuevo parque ayudará a fortalecer la conexión y el tejido de nuestra vibrante comunidad”, explicó la concejal Gabriela Santiago-Romero.

“Los espacios verdes son esenciales para la salud y el bienestar de nuestros residentes, y este proyecto no solo realzará la belleza de nuestra Ciudad, sino que también brindará un espacio seguro y acogedor para que disfruten las familias… Estoy emocionado de ver que este proyecto se haga realidad y espero con ansias el impacto positivo que tendrá en nuestra comunidad”, comentó la presidenta del Concejo, Mary Sheffield. “

La histórica estación central de Michigan se alza en el parque Roosevelt.

Además de la rica historia del parque, éste se encuentra frente a la histórica Estación Central de Michigan, que había estado vacante desde 1988. En 2018, Ford Motor Company anunció que adquiriría el antiguo símbolo del declive de la ciudad y lo restauraría a su antigua gloria, no solo como espacio de oficinas, sino como un destino para el comercio minorista, las artes, la cultura y el espacio comunitario. El próximo año, la estación de trenes reabrirá sus puertas por primera vez en casi 40 años, que será la pieza central de un distrito de innovación de 30 acres.

“Junto con las vías verdes de Joe Louis y Southwest, el parque Roosevelt será otra calurosa invitación para que todos los habitantes de Detroit sean parte de lo que está sucediendo en la Estación Central”, dijo Cornetta Lane-Smith, directora de participación comunitaria de Michigan Central. “Cada etapa de esta remodelación ha sido diseñada y construida pensando en la comunidad, y nuestros eventos y programación reflejarán la rica historia de nuestra ciudad y las colonias circundantes. Estamos ansiosos por abrir nuestras puertas y compartir lo que creemos que será algo de lo que todos los habitantes de Detroit estarán orgullosos de ser parte”.

El parque Roosevelt ahora ya está listo para que el público lo disfrute, con el nuevo espacio unificado para fomentar la comunidad.
