Prince Tribute

Henderson has a tribute to the late Prince, replete with a mural of his royal Purpleness leaning on the iconic Little Red Corvette with his signature guitar, standing in front of First Ave. There is also a bench, a street intersection sign, and his symbol and likeness plastered about. Some scenes from Purple Rain were filmed around this small town just southwest of Minneapolis.
