The renovated Library Park Plaza at YDL-Michigan, where the statue of Harriet Tubman is located, was dedicated in 2006. The park was initiated by the YDL Board of Trustees and features outdoor library programs and a special children's area with book-shaped seating. The plaza also includes a fountain built in 1982 and restored in 2006, as well as a historical marker celebrating Elijah McCoy.
The statue of Harriet Tubman, created by renowned sculptor Jane DeDecker, serves as the centerpiece of the plaza. Tubman's significant role in the Underground Railroad and Ypsilanti's involvement in the abolitionist movement make her a fitting choice for the park's focal point. The renovation of the park plaza was made possible by the Friends of YDL, the Downtown Development Authority, Pfizer, and various local fundraising efforts.
