Description:
James Scott bequeathed $200,000 and his state to the City of Detroit on the condition that this fountain would be built in his honor. A controversial figure, Scott was known for his vices more than his virtues. An avid gambler, he was also known to be belligerent and unethical in his business dealings. The fountain has made an appearance in two films - "T-Men" in 1947 and the Hackman-Pacino 1973 drama "Scarecrow."
