Comerica Incorporated NYSECMA is a financial services company headquartered in Dallas, Texas. In 1849, the Detroit Savings Fund Institute was founded by Elon Farnsworth. The company's name changed to The Detroit Savings Bank in 1881 and to simply the Detroit Bank in 1933, being one of the few area banks to survive the Great Depression. In 1953, the Detroit Bank, The Birmingham National Bank, Ferndale National Bank, and Detroit Wabeek Bank and Trust Company consolidated operations to form The Detroit Bank & Trust Company. This remained the name of the bank until 1982 when the current name was adopted. In 1992, Comerica merged with Manufacturers National Corporation.

Comerica Park - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (515 words)
While Comerica Park has no obstructed views of the field, the tradeoff for this is that upper-deck seats are considerably further from the action than they were at Tiger Stadium.
Comerica Park has also been criticized for facing south (which can cause the setting sun to blind spectators during evening games) and for having a shallow incline to its standards (which can make it difficult for shorter spectators to see over the person seated in front of them).
Even after this, Comerica's dimensions remain some of the largest in all of Major League Baseball, and some argue that further reductions in fence distance are needed.
