The Robert C. Valade Park is Detroit’s newest park to open along the East Riverfront. Formerly known as Atwater Beach, the park will still feature a sandy beach, but now also includes a children’s musical garden, playgrounds, a community barbecue area, a floating bar named Bob’s Barge and a 3,600-square-foot event space called The Shed.

The 3.6-acre park will also connect the Stroh River Place to the Aretha Franklin Amphitheatre via the RiverWalk.
