Rosa Parks Flat, Civil rights landmark duplex in Virginia Park Street, Detroit, United States.

The two-story brick building at 3201-3203 Virginia Park Street features red brick facades, a hipped roof, and a front porch with brick piers.

Rosa Parks and her husband Raymond lived in the ground floor apartment from 1961 to 1988, following their relocation from Alabama due to harassment.

The residence served as a meeting point for civil rights discussions, where Parks continued her activism while working for Congressman John Conyers.

The National Register of Historic Places listed property stands as a testament to the transition of Detroit neighborhoods from white to African American communities.

Parks established the Rosa and Raymond Parks Institute for Self-Development in 1987 during her time at this residence, focusing on youth education.
