What's happening?
The Detroit Riverfront Conservancy broke ground on the Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. Centennial Park in 2022. The 22-acre park was expected to open in 2024, with a water garden, basketball courts, children’s play structure, a small island and possible boat rentals and ice skating. The site was purchased by the conservancy in 2014.
