Ballpark:
Comerica Park

The $300 million urban village known as Comerica Park has raised expectations in the city of Detroit. The ballpark includes a carousel, Ferris wheel and an enormous water feature behind center field that can be choreographed to music. A major priority when designing this park was the fans' sightlines. Comerica has no upper-deck outfield seats, offering a gorgeous view of the downtown skyline. The park includes 70,000 square feet of retail space and another 36,000 square feet of offices.
