Caption: "Bell [sic] Isle Park - Detroit," c.1925. This photograph features the Belle Isle Casino, on the edge of Lake Tacoma on Belle Isle, in the Detroit River. The building is the second structure at the site, built in 1908 to replace a dilapidated wooden structure. The building is not a gambling facility, but is instead called a "casino" in the older sense of the word: a public building for meetings, dancing, reunions, and other recreation.
Date: 1925
