Monumental, first of its kind tribute to the Queen of Rock ‘N’ Roll draws global fans and boosts local pride.

Already celebrated with a museum inside the Flagg Grove Schoolhouse she once attended, the late Tina Turner received yet another lasting tribute this weekend as the City of Brownsville unveiled a bronze statue of the global icon in the city’s Heritage Park (709 East Jefferson Street). Positioned to face Carver High School—where Turner was once a student—the statue stands as a powerful reminder of her roots and enduring influence.
