Images and quotes of late heavy weight champion Muhammad Ali were projected at the intersection of 125th St. and Saint Nicholas Ave in Harlem on June 5, 2016, a day after Ali died in Phoenix.
The tribute in lights to late boxing champion Muhammad Ali appeared on the sidewall of building number 322 on 125th St.
Harlem was in the early 50s home to Drew Brown, Muhammad Ali’s corner man and speechwriter.
Brown was the author of the famous quote: “Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, your hands can’t hit what your eyes can’t see.”
Muhammed Ali’s tribute in Harlem started earlier that day on the Apollo Theater marquee that read “In honor of Muhammad Ali, the greatest of all time 1942-2016.”
