Capitol Park

Capitol Park is a charming triangular green space bounded by Shelby, Griswold and State Streets. Originally the site of Michigan's first territorial capitol (built 1805), today it’s surrounded by historic architecture, leafy landscaping, fountains, benches—and even an off-leash dog park. A hub for events, fitness classes, local nightlife, restaurants, coffee shops and retail tucked into century‑old facades.

Belle Isle
