Tiger Stadium Site, formerly known as Navin Field and Briggs Stadium, was a historic baseball arena located in the Corktown neighborhood of Detroit, Michigan. It served as the home field for the Detroit Tigers from 1912 to 2000 and the Detroit Lions from 1938 to 1974, earning the nickname "The Corner" for its location at the intersection of Michigan Avenue and Trumbull Boulevard.
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989, Tiger Stadium hosted various sporting events and activities over the years, with a seating capacity that evolved from 23,000 in 1912 to 52,416 in 1937. Despite its closure in 2008 and subsequent demolition in 2009, the legacy of Tiger Stadium lives on through preservation efforts and fond memories shared by sports enthusiasts and Detroit locals.
