"I'm glad to have seen this in my short stay in Detroit!"
"A must busy in your way to Heart Plaza. It's so much nicer in this area from when I grew up in Detroit. In my youth of the late 80s and early 90s this was mostly an area of city born as many suburbanites avoided the area because of the crim. Glad to see its a vibrant city again!"
"While in Detroit I had to visit this art piece tribute to Joe Louis for a photo because… well, I’m a tourist and that’s what tourists do. I went late in the evening so no crowds at all. I was disappointed there was no plaque or description of this sculpture (or at least nothing I could find). Those without prior knowledge would just view this as a fist sculpture with no understanding of what/who it represents. The park south of this sculpture was closed, I think it is being renovated."
"when visit DETROIT its a historical & memorial place to see and understand its history. I went on weekend morning so there were no crowd at all. Support local business & tourism in Michigan"
