If you haven’t had a chance to visit Corktown lately, you may have missed the walls of murals all along Michigan Avenue and unique installations and sculptures in North Corktown. The “North Corktown Pheasant” honors pheasants that are known to wander around the neighborhood when the weather gets warm. “Monumental Kitty” resides at the foot of the Cochrane pedestrian bridge. Fish Park is a pocket park that’s hosted by the “Trout Perch.” The residents of Cochrane came together to beautify the neighborhood by building the Cochrane birdhouses.

Leaves are falling, Autumn is calling

Detroit is not only a bustling urban area with a vibrant restaurant/shopping/sports/entertainment scene, it also offers some of the state’s most treasured natures sites to visit like Belle Isle; William G. Milliken State Park and Harbor, Eastern Market and the Dequindre Cut Greenway.

The splendor of a Michigan autumn is unmatched, but anyone who has been in this state for even one winter knows that we have limited time to enjoy the fall before the conditions turn frigid. While you’re taking in all the breathtaking aspects of the redesigned neighborhood, don’t forget to support one or more of the hometown teams that are back in action and reopening their doors to fans. Corktown’s Michigan Ave. is a prime spot to grab a bite and a beverage before heading down the road to see the Lions at Ford Field or Pistons or Red Wings at Little Caesars Arena.

Detroit is not only a bustling urban area with a vibrant restaurant/shopping/sports/entertainment scene, it also offers some of the state’s most treasured natures sites to visit like Belle Isle; William G. Milliken State Park and Harbor, Eastern Market and the Dequindre Cut Greenway.

One of Detroit’s most beloved spring traditions will be modified due to the pandemic this year as Flower Day – a beloved Eastern Market annual festival that draws crowds of over 100,000 people each year – will be extended to a full Flower Season. Detroiters can look forward to nature’s rebirth – and the rebirth of our spirits – as the city becomes more vibrant and the community comes together again – safely and outdoors.

Cultivating Corktown

The city has seen an urban farming revolution take hold in recent years as enthusiasts, resident farmers and community volunteers work together to make Detroit a more beautiful, healthy and safe place to live. Corktown hosts a number of community gardens that are just a short walk from Elton Park including Brother Nature Produce, one of the area’s longest-standing chemical-free urban farms; and Labrosse Farm, a frequent farmer’s market vendor that has made a name for itself as one of the most celebrated urban farms in the city. Corktown is a base neighborhood for the Greening of Detroit – an organization that facilitates city-wide urban farming.

Bright Spring Wishes to you all. Enjoy your multi-attraction neighborhood and stay tuned for the next Elton Park Blog.

Happy New Year! Thank you for tuning in to another edition of Elton Park Blog – your source for all the buzz in and around Elton Park. As we begin the new year, many people will be participating in the New Year’s Resolution tradition and prioritizing their health and wellness; pledging to continue good practices and change undesired ones; and outlining personal goals.

Why do people make changes around the New Year?

The New Year is a natural time to make important changes. As people reflect on the past year, they can identify what went well and what did not, and the new year presents an opportunity to press the “reset” button.

Some of the more popular New Year’s Resolution picks have to do with improving personal health or taking up a new hobby or maybe even learning a new language, and often, people start out strong but have trouble maintaining enthusiasm as the year progresses. However, surrounding yourself in an environment with the right tools and resources can go a long way toward helping you make your New Year’s Resolution stick.

How can Corktown support me in my goals for the New Year?

Elton Park Corktown residents can rest assured that they will be supported in their New Year’s Resolution efforts by a plethora of easily accessible parks, bookstores, and cafés that support personal enrichment.

Whether it is prioritizing your physical health during a socially distant workout class at Clark Park; taking a mind-clearing stroll through Roosevelt Park and enjoying an excellent view of the Historic Michigan Central Train Station; or picking up some new reading material at the critically acclaimed John K. King’s Rare & Used Bookstore, Corktown has all the tools to help you stay committed to reaching your goals for the New Year! And with the everchanging Stay-at-Home guidelines, we anticipate even more resources like fitness studios, yoga centers and others, will be made available to help you take better care of yourself for 2021. Stay tuned!

If you’re curious about this lady, she’s literally plastered, on a brick wall in the Belt alleyway outside Standby. Portuguese street artist Vhils put her there.

Corktown Lowdown

You live in Detroit’s oldest neighborhood and you’re famous–listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Why’s it called Corktown?
In the 1840’s, the largest group of Detroit’s new immigrants were from Ireland, many from County Cork, so their neighborhood came to be known as “Corktown.”

Hollywood East

Cameras rolled and drones flew in Corktown from a friendly barbershop, barbecue landmark and unique boutique to a classic baseball scene at old Tiger Stadium in the Elton Park and Friends Video. The production ended –you guessed it–with the director saying “It’s a wrap.” See the video by Clicking Here.

Yum

Corktown fave Mudgies is our first eatery choice being a combo grocery, deli, (great soups, salads, sandwiches) and wine shoppe with a gr8 and friendly patio.
July becomes Lobster month which began as lobsta roll week in 2012and grew, now turning 2,000 pounds of lobster into 8,000 rolls a week!

Lost & Found

We found this vintage 1951 Checker Cab under a tarp in perfect condition in the parking deck of our new Checker apartments.

By George:

The Robertson is named after George Robertson, the first taxi driver in Detroit to paint black-and-white checkers on his cab.

Diversity Shines

In the Roaring 20’s Detroit was booming. A new banking group wanted a blockbuster headquarters so they hired architect Wirt C. Rowland to create a building like no other.

A full city block was actually ”busted” in 1929 to make way for the 40 story monument that is now one of the most significant Art Deco skyscrapers in the world.

Visitors are awestuck by the explosion of color, craft and mix of Native American, Aztec, and Arts & Crafts design. Forty artisans worked on its painted murals and ceilings, intricate tile, mosaics, stained glass and vaulted lobby. No expense was spared as seen in the lavish use of Marble from Italy, and Africa, brillantly colored Rookwood tiles and Monel metal.

Today, The Guardian building, a National Historic Landmark, is a tribute to those who believed in the success of Detroit and its many cultures. Nearly a century later, that idea still rings true.
