On the north side of Belle Isle, better known as the "Detroit side," sits a historic landmark that has been the home of Detroit's only rowing club for more than 100 years. In its heyday, the boathouse was a bustling venue, featuring a grand ballroom, dining rooms and a bar frequented by Detroit's elite. But the future of the boathouse remains uncertain. In this episode of "CuriosiD," WDET's Amanda LeClaire digs into the history of the iconic structure, and what needs to be done to save it.
