Rogell is a new 98-acre park, formally known as the Rogell Golf Course. The initial vision for Rogell was established during the Grand River Northwest Neighborhood Framework Plan adopted in 2018. During that community engagement process, the redevelopment of the former golf course into a public park arose as a priority. Special focus groups were formed for the Rogell Park Master Plan also adopted in 2018. The result is a concept defining Rogell Park as one of Detroit’s signature passive-recreation destinations; immersing Detroiters into nature through trails, wetlands, and meadows.
