Ray Charles Plaza

Holding court in the center of the Plaza that runs along the Flint River is a life-size sculpture of the pioneering soul musician, Ray Charles, seated at a baby Grand piano which rests on a rotating pedestal. While Ray Charles’ beloved melodies play at timed intervals, water flows over the pedestal and spills into a reflecting pool at its base.
