Demolition begins on new Detroit City FC Stadium project

Demolition has begun on the long-vacant Southwest Detroit Hospital to make way for Detroit City Football Club's new 15,000-seat stadium, AlumniFi Field, set to open in 2027. Located at Michigan Avenue and 20th Street, the project includes housing, commercial space, and a parking garage, with an expected $25 million annual economic impact. This development is seen as a transformative step for Detroit, bridging the Mexicantown and Corktown neighborhoods, and enhancing local community growth and connectivity.
