After all the attention, and in some circles heated arguments, about the proposed
Robo-Cop Statue lessons are being learned. The statue honoring the fictional sci-fi character will be built with money generated from a cyber fund raising site:
kickstarter. The $50 grand needed was generated within a week. Now another group or organization (if you can call the robo-supporters an organization, I mean when's the last time you've heard of a Robo support club meeting?) is following their lead.
Hostel Detroit is using the same site as the "robo's." They are also experiencing great results. Here's a post from their Facebook account on Thursday.
Hostel Detroit plans to open this April. It's located a block west of Rosa Parks, just past I-75. It's the first Hostel in 10 years for Detroit. If they meet their goal maybe they'll make a statue of people making a robocop statue. One can only hope.
