I'm not originally from the Downriver area, so until a few years ago I'd never been to Heritage Park. I've been there probably a dozen times now, and each time there is something new to enjoy. Between hosting the Little League World Series, the petting zoo, botanical garden, historic buildings and the slew of businesses in the park there is a little something for everyone. The park offers tons of walking/hiking/biking trails, a great fishing spot and beautiful scenic backgrounds that leaves a photographer astounded. There are always people in the park when I'm there, which is great to see, some parks I grew up around didn't always have other people in them. Oh, and lest I forget, not only does it offer all of this cool stuff, but there are tons of special events and other neat things going on all the time too. Whether looking for a spot to sit and read a book on a sunny spring day, or looking for the perfect background for a photo, this park is the place to go. read more
