Downtown Akron to get 15' tall statue honoring Rubber Workers

Written by

In September of 2020, The City of Akron plans to dedicate a new, 15' tall, bronze statue of a Rubber Worker in the center of the new Round-a-bout that is going in at Main and Mill.

The statue will sit atop a marble base and the city will sell bricks that will be engraved and placed around the base as it continues to raise funds for the project from corporate and private donors.
