BEACON PARK

Developed in 2017 by DTE, Beacon Park is a distinctive gathering place providing experiences for visitors of all ages, interests, and backgrounds. An environmentally conscious space, the park features multiple gardens, sits near several protected bike lanes, and is adjacent to four E/V chargers. The largest lawn of any in Downtown Detroit, Beacon Park’s accessible green space embodies a mission of light, energy and motion.

Offering FREE year-round programming, Beacon Park is both open to the entire community and equipped for world class private events. The park is also home to its flagship restaurant Lumen Detroit — a LEED certified building, featuring a rooftop garden, spacious patio, and panoramic views of the Downtown skyline.
