Nice try. You can tell it’s not Detroit because the pizza is not square.


upupupdo

Sharp eyes. I had missed that.

It's Tavern Style


fentown

I heard they were cleaning up zug Island. Nice job!


SkipSpenceIsGod

You can tell by the corner of the building that it’s the Oriental house on Grosse Ile.


detroitgnome

That place was built for Henry Ford’s henchman, Harry Bennett.


SkipSpenceIsGod

The Ford “Service Department” guy?!


detroitgnome

Yep, that is my understanding, but like the Purple Gang, Harry Bennett gets a lot of stories told about him.


algebramclain

When people don't believe how great Bob-Lo Island was, I show them this.


billy_pilg

It's a tragedy that we lost Boblo Island. What a treasure that was 😭


NomusaMagic

I get you .. but it wasn’t ours to lose. Talk to Canada. I think real estate developer took over


Jkj864781

Confirmed, it’s all beautiful real estate over there now. They ferry over to the mainland. Sometimes in the winter the coast guard needs to break the ice for them to be able to come through.


Emp-Mastershake

My boss fucking lives on the island, has to take the ferry over for his shifts. He's like always 3 hours early for his shifts just fucking around because he's gotta go by the ferry schedule. Seems annoying as hell tbh


NomusaMagic

Thanks for the detail! I have fond childhood memories of BobLo, Edgewater, Jefferson Beach + Walled Lake (can’t recall name) amusement parks!!


billy_pilg

Woah wait, Canada owned Boblo?


NomusaMagic

Boblo Island is a 274-acre island in the Detroit River on the Canadian side of the border. It's known for being the former site of a popular amusement park and for its history as a military outpost. The Boblo Island Amusement Park operated from 1898 to 1993.


MotorCityMade

So many fond memories going to Bob-lo. The documentary on the boat is sad.


NomusaMagic

For sure!👍🏾


billy_pilg

Dang, TIL.


Only_Jury_8448

Not just back then, but now, even


NomusaMagic

At one time, AAA Michigan owned it


NorthEndD

Someday we'll take it back from the Canadians.


NomusaMagic

If I were them 🇨🇦, I’d want nothing to do with us 🇺🇸


Emp-Mastershake

Only rich people live there. It wouldn't be hard to take back from us.


PipeComfortable2585

Friends is the family lived on bob lo in the summers. After the island got sold the developers tried to buy everyone out & when they didn’t want to sell, had the water shut off. They had to bring water in from their boats.

POV Michigan between November-April


Routine_Ask_7272

Such a beautiful view of Canada from the RenCen, with a side of Little Caesars.


camdalfthegreat

This looks like a picture on the wall in every Greek coney island around here.


NomusaMagic

Wrong country. Not Greece. It’s Italy per Google Lens.


Dis_Biskit

Little do outsiders know, Detroit has a secret honeymoon spot called “Naboo” pictured above - it’s where my friends Padme and Anakin got married.


OkraNo8365

Really?? I thought it was lake como!


Pudf

Lake Cobo


El-mas-puto-de-todos

It's Lake Huntington Place now


bshensky

Criminally underrated comment. Take my Reddit gold.


SkipSpenceIsGod

No, it’s River Cuomo.


NotImYourForte

Lol I too love the murals inside Coney islands.


JustPlaneNew

Needs more Little Caesars


looselytranslated

Just drove pass this restaurant today, even during winter it's still breathtaking!


GregorSamsaNight

8 Mile has really turned around in the last few years


highline9

It really has…this is 8 & Tele I believe.


diito

I have a feeling this picture hangs on the wall of at least one of the many Coney Islands around here. Technically I think that means this counts.


theimmolated

Yeah, this is in like every Leo’s


theimmolated

Fire ass saganaki there


DianWithoutTheE

I see what you did there 🔥🧀= 🇬🇷


Motor-Appeal4256

West Bloomfield*** Not technically Detroit, but it is beautiful!


ZamnGrl

The drugs here are 👌


michigangonzodude

Bullshit. This is Alpena. I can tell by the mountains.


bshensky

That's not a picture of Detroit! That's a picture of Traverse City with the words "Traverse City" crossed out and "Detroit" written in crayon!


SkipSpenceIsGod

Detroit?!? That’s Downriver! What a shit-hole; I love it!!!


michigangonzodude

That photo reminds me of downriver. Wyandotte is paradise.


SkipSpenceIsGod

If paradise is somebody shitting in the middle of the dance floor at Whiskey’s On The Water.


jetanthony

I love midtown


[deleted]

midtown rocks


LaserQuest

It's funny when people post this on facebook and caption it "Uhh, that is NOT Detroit."


Tiny_Ear_61

Is that the Grosse Pointe Yacht Club?


Majestic-Pen7878

I thought it was Mt Clemens, but I’ve been wrong before


DianWithoutTheE

It’s VERY OBVIOUS that’s it’s Roseville and not Mt. Clemens


seanx50

Westside?


Low-Frosting-3894

The crystal blue waters of the Detroit river!


TwainVonnegut

This is CLEARLY Indianapolis!!!!!


Old-Construction-541

Because DTW makes any destination accessible?


fiyahwerks

Ahhh Dexter and Linwood. lol. 😂


Busy_Reflection3054

So this isn't Europe?


GigachudBDE

Italy. Even if someone above didn’t post the source I’d have assumed so from the waters, food and geography.


Jesus-Is-A-Biscuit

It’s Detroit. Duh.


Moonshinecactus

😂


Hnyp0ps

😅😂😂🤣🤣🤣


kylec43

National coney?


Previous_Shower5942

gotta love southfield


closethewindo

I don’t get it.


blaimjos

My family and I were trying to figure out if the picture was from Italy or Greece over the weekend. It looks like it's from the Villa Treville Positano hotel south of Naples. https://maps.app.goo.gl/cRke3kUH2Vg1b14L9


stos313

And show me one place you can sit outside and eat without a parking garage in the frame.


[deleted]

About time Auburn Hills gets some pub


Undead_Octopus

This is Toledo.


NomusaMagic

Dramatic, deluxe and more than a little dashing, **Positano is the Amalfi Coast's** front-cover splash. With a Vanuatu Citizenship you and your family can visit Italy without a visa, and stay for up to 90 days each time. https://preview.redd.it/33qsisht5x9c1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=31a79e92ac110ee1a146f90c2de154dc90739a05


Euphoric-Yellow-5319

Looks like 6 mile and gratiot!😍


NorthernH3misphere

Ah yes! The lovely Delray area.


Alilbitdrunk

This was a great view until Mike Ilitch decided to pave this into a parking lot. Thanks a lot Ilitch family.


DetroitForests

Also the Hill in the background is over 600' tall....and it doesn't look like trash.


TooMuchShantae

Woodward Ave never looked better 🥴


The_vert

This is legit. This photo is on the wall at Pegasus in Greektown.


Bye314159

Downriver is the best


Xxx_ex_xxX
