Formerly Watts Branch Park, it was renamed for him on 2 April 2006, what would have been his 67th birthday.
A public park with a trail its whole length. The mosaic is at the Lady Bird Johnson Meadows entrance, by Minnesota Avenue and Nannie Helen Burroughs Avenue.
He went to Cardozo High School in Northwest Washington, and left before graduating.
A working school: see it from Clifton Street.
On 1 May 1972 he gave a concert here, on the day the mayor had named Marvin Gaye Day.
The main building closed in September 2026 and is fenced off: see it from the river path. Some programmes continue at the Reach.
