The statue immortalizes a man who built opportunity and paved the way for much progress. It is prominently located on 22nd Street South to welcome all who come to The Deuces, St. Petersburg’s historic 22nd Street Corridor.

The site is located at the intersection of 22 ^nd St. S. and 7 ^th Ave. S. on the south side of the Manhattan Casino building. The project address is 688 22 ^nd Street South.
