  • Detroit's Capitol Park
    LANDMARK OF LIBERTY: Detroit’s Capitol Park By Jack Dempsey hen Michigan commemorated the Wbicentennial birthday of its first governor in 2011, the ceremony occurred in a place largely unknown to citizens of the Great Lakes State. That lack of familiarity is unfortunate, for the location should be easily identifiable to every Michigander. JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2012 | 19 Avenue, west of Woodward Avenue. As a constituent part of the Northwest Territory from 1805 to 1837, Michigan’s government apparatus differed significantly from that of today. Detroit was the capital, and a unicameral body called the Territorial Council exercised legislative authority for the people.

Michigan sent a single, nonvoting delegate to the U.S. House of Representatives, who acted as the voice of the territory in hiladelphia is home to Independence National the national legislature. No one represented it in the U.S. Historical Park, where the National Park Service Senate.

Once Dearborn’s Greenfield Village is featured in the park, along the territory possessed the requisite population, it could with the Liberty Bell and Benjamin Franklin’s grave. The declaration of 1776 issued forth from there. It is hallowed ground for our nation. Michigan possesses a comparable site: Capitol Park in downtown Detroit.
