Mack Park
Mack Park was the original home field of Detroit's Negro National League baseball franchise, the Detroit Stars. It was constructed in 1914 by Joe Roesink, sponsor of a local semi-professional team, a Dutchman of Jewish descent born in Grand Rapids who owned a chain of haberdasheries. Location The park was located on the east side of Detroit, about four miles from downtown, at the southeast corner of Fairview Ave. and Mack Ave., after which it was named. The location was then in the heart of the city's German community, some distance from the city's African American neighborhoods of Paradise Valley and Black Bottom, which were closer to downtown.

Mack (naval Architecture)
In naval architecture, a mack is a structure which combines the Mast (ship)#Modern masts, radar masts and the funnel (ship), exhaust stack of a surface ship, thereby saving the upper deck space used for separate funnels and the increasingly large tripod masts used to carry heavy radar aerials. The word is a composite (portmanteau) of "mast" and "stack". It is a common design feature on post-WWII warships, (e.g. the rebuilt Baltimore class cruisers), and on some cruise ships. The Marine Nationale used a combined exhaust stack and rear director mast on Richelieu class battleships in the late 1930s. The Royal Navy used this design feature on the 1944 Weapon class destroyers, and the subsequent Daring class destroyer (1949), ''Daring''s, and in the diesel-engined Leopard class frigate, Type 41 "Cat" class and Salisbury class frigate, Type 61 "Cathedral" class frigates of the 1950s. It provided unbalanced and unattractive designs, which led to a reversion to separate masts and funnel ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
