Yep, a Matty is finally stepping up and putting part of his fortune to be used by the People.

but there is a catch. He requires we have to build a bronze statue of him before those millions are released. The statue has to be 3 times life size and must be erected in Campus Martius.

so, do we take up his offer?

impossible you say? This modest proposal was proffered a 100 years ago by noted rapscallion, James Scott. You may know Scott only by the fountain that bears his name on Belle Isle.

So, the question here, while theoretical, was faced by previous Detroiters. If it was up to you, would you take the dough, or not?
