"Titled “Patterns of Detroit,” the 3000 square foot mural was created with the input of 27 community groups. Hubert Massey, a local muralist, designed the central panel, which depicts a mother and child surrounded by important neighborhood landmarks. The mother works to bind together colorful patterns representing the various cultures in the city. The fabric winds through the central images and spills out into horizontal panels, each produced by a different local school or nonprofit organization. The mural was dedicated on October 5, 2005. "
