I'm sure there are lots of grafitti "monuments" in Detroit. And we've seen how valuable some of the art is. Just search for Banksy on this map and you'll see where his art can still be admired. This map just started and Detroit is still not featured.
Could you spare some time adding some mural art?

Hey Whitehouse, I used to live on that block twenty years ago. If you go north on Desjardins street for about 6 blocks, you will end up at the Olympic Stadium site.
This is the neighborhood my dad grew up in. [[Hochelaga-Maisonneuve)
Hochelaga is the name of the Iroquois village that was there when Jacques-Cartier the first french explorer to Canada came upon Mount Royal in 1535. The city proper was founded in 1642 by Paul Chomedey, sieur de Maisonneuve.

Thanks for the streetart link!
I tried to add a spectacular mural just before completion here in Detroit, but google's streetview is at least two years behind the times! That wall is still the yellow base it was before the artist started!
Hell, even the abandoned building at the corner looks OCCUPIED, and it hasn't been since the project was agreed upon...because that building is the artist's temporary office and storage!
I added some places but there is already a "grafitti tour" in my city.
