Belle Isle is trying to make a comeback with the help of several organizations. Hopefully one day it will be filled with people like it was here, over 100 years ago.
Take a look at the photograph entitled “Children’s Day: 1902“:

June 4, 1902. “Children’s Day on Belle Isle, Detroit.” Looks like a good turnout this year. 8×10 inch glass negative, Detroit Publishing Company.

About Jeffrey S. Buck
I'm currently a Project Manager at Cypress Partners, LLC in Bloomfield Hills, Mich. I graduated from Wayne State University in 2008 with a B.A. in Journalism. Looking to broaden my view of the world, I spent a semester abroad studying at the University of Salford, a Greater Manchester University in England. I enjoy doing an array of activities, including following Detroit sports teams, SCUBA diving, traveling, reading, playing tennis, hand-written letters and going to the movies.
I am the co-founder of the Woodward Spine, a blog about Detroit and its surrounding communities. The Woodward Spine aims to inform its readers about relevant news and events through creative and informative posts in these core areas: news, opinion, entertainment, history, sports and development. The Woodward Spine serves the tri-county metro Detroit area, concentrating mainly on the communities that lie along the Woodward corridor.
