Joe Louis Arena

The former home of the Detroit Red Wings, Joe Louis Arena stood proudly along the banks of the Detroit River from 1979 to 2017; demolition was completed in 2019. It opened in 1979 and was named after former heavyweight champion boxer Joe Louis, who grew up in Detroit. The street address honors Red Wing captain Steve Yzerman, who wore the number 19 for his entire NHL career as a Detroit Red Wing.

The Red Wings moved to Little Caesars Arena in 2017.
