This floral display is located in East Grand Circus Park, the oldest of Detroit's breathing grounds, is situated almost in the center of the city's retail district.

The Park was set aside in 1854 under the general redistricting of the city. In the foreground Detroit's slogan is brought out very prominently in beautifully colored foliage. Handwritten message on verso, postmarked Nov 20, 1911.
