Parks
As one of the most rural of Downriver communities, it's little surprise that it would boast one of the finest selections of community parks in the region.In fact, Brownstown features thirteen different parks throughout its 23.6 square miles:
A project undertaken last year fulfilled the dream of community ball players: a 19- acre parcel of land was leased to Brownstown to develop playing fields on Arsenal Road.
Prior to the agreement, the Little League relied on the Gibraltar and Woodhaven school districts and the local United Auto Workers Union to provide them with playing fields.
Now, however, the new park will not only provide ball diamonds, but will also see double duty in the off-season as a public park.
Under the new arrangement, Little League officials will be responsible for park maintenance during baseball season, and the local government will take over the rest of the year.
