Home to the impressive Spirit of Detroit sculpture by local sculptor Marshall Fredericks, the Spirit of Detroit Plaza is becoming a popular meeting place in downtown Detroit. The plaza opened in 2017 and is intended to provide a “civic square” where locals can gather to celebrate victories, rally support for various causes or simply to enjoy a changing list of events. The plaza is currently still finding its feet, so to speak, and it is hoped that further initiatives will in time attract people from all over the city. Currently you will find lunch-time food trucks in attendance during the week and on Mondays, Wednesdays and Friday you can enjoy free entertainment between 11.30 and 1.30.
