Old places

Not really my sort of movie, but check out the location, old Detroiters, starting at about 1:28:

I had a little trouble seeing through the bad dialog...and it's been a really long time--is that belle isle?
Oh and thanks for the other Detroit updates--Campus Maritus and Grand River Castle. It's good to see the old city getting some positive attention.

Ha! Hugh Jackman is apparently in cash-in mode!

That is the old Belle Isle zoo and a brief appearance by the Cobo arena.

BTW, if you remember the old Mercury coffee house across from was been Tiger Stadium, it's about to re-open as the Mercury Burger and beer!
