As 500 police officers lined the route, Ali was driven past his childhood home, the Ali Center, the Center for African American Heritage and then down Muhammad Ali Boulevard.
Ali will be laid to rest at the Cave Hill Cemetery under a headstone that reads simply "Ali.”

His memorial service Friday will be attended by President Bill Clinton, Bryant Gumble, former boxer Lennox Lewis, the daughter of civil rights activist Malcolm X, Attallah Shabazz and actor/comedian Billy Crystal inside the KFC Yum! Center arena.
