Description: Detroit Boat Club, MICHIGAN - 1907: The Detroit Boat Club was established in 1839, as a sport rowing club. It was first created on the Detroit River during a time in which Detroit was just starting to grow. The Detroit Boat Club is a member of the Detroit Regional Yacht-racing Association (DRYA). On August 4, 1902, the current boathouse was dedicated. Since the social club left Belle Isle in 1996, the historic building has fallen into disrepair. Current assessments put the needed repairs over $20 million. The club has around 200 members who pay $400 in dues a year. This pay along with few other forms of income has led to many business proposals for the renovation of the site. The property and building are currently leased for 30 years to the Detroit Boat Club Crew from the State of Michigan. There are volunteer projects to restore the boat club, as time and weather further the deterioration of the building. This Undivided Back Era postcard, mailed in 1907, is in good condition.
