Beacon Park

Detroit


A community gathering space across the street from the fortress-like GAR Building, Beacon Park always has something cool going on: food trucks on summer weekdays (from 11am to 2pm), free concerts, whimsical interactive art installations, a night market with a silent disco on summer Saturdays (7pm to midnight) and free yoga classes on the circular lawn.
