Anna Thompson Dodge, widow of auto pioneer Horace E. Dodge, bequithed $1,000,000 to the city of Detroit for the construction of a fountain in the memory of her late husband and son. The fountain, designed by Isamu Noguchim, was completed in 1978. The 30-foot tall sculpture consists of a stainless steel ring suspended on two support legs over a black, granite pool. Located on Detroit's riverfront in Hart Plaza, the fountain has become a recognizable symbol of Detroit.
