Today, on what would have been Chuck Brown‘s 76th birthday, Mayor Vince Gray has deemed Aug. 22 Chuck Brown Day. The mayor has also made public plans for a memorial in honor of the late godfather of go-go, who died May 16.

Gray introduced legislation for a Chuck Brown memorial back in June. In a press release sent this morning, the mayor says plans are finally coming together to transform a part of Langdon Park, in Ward 5’s Langdon neighborhood, into Chuck Brown Memorial Park, erecting a “memorial bust or statue at the park’s amphitheater.” The image above shows what it could look like. The release says the amphitheater and other park facilities will be renovated.
