Here are a couple of pictures of the statue of former Mayor William Maybury in Grand Circus Park downtown, which was erected in 1912, three years after his death. Looking at his
biography on Congress' biographical website, he represented Michigan for the Democratic party in the mid-late 1880s, and was the city attorney for Detroit, where he was born and raised. Mabury was also a mayor of Detroit, but lost when he ran for Governor in 1900 . He died in 1909, at the age of 60. This is one statue that's frequently passed as people walk and ride around the Grand Circus Park/Stadium area. They're fixing up some of the area around the statue, hence the yellow stick on the base there.
