Belle Isle just got a rebrand. And honestly? It's about time. The @belleisleconservancy is now positioning the island as "Detroit's Backyard" and "Detroit Joy." New website, new visual identity, curated Spotify playlists, the whole thing. Mayor Sheffield made it one of her first priorities after being sworn in. Here's the thing though - @belleislestatepark already IS that place. It's bigger than Central Park. Like, significantly bigger. 982 acres versus 843. Both designed by Frederick Law Olmste
