Grand Circus Park Local Historic District

The Grand Circus Park Local Historic District includes the park itself and the buildings across the half-circle of streets that surrounds it, including East and West Adams Avenue, and Witherell Street and Park Avenue, south from Adams to Woodward. You can read details about the district and its buildings in the Proposed Grand Circus Park Local Historic District Final Report (local copy), which I recommend highly to anyone interested in Detroit's history. A Wikipedia Page also describes the district.
