  This site covers the years 2004-2010, when the Aquarium was Closed during the Kwame Kilpatrick Administration.
  The archive is incomplete as many of the external links are no longer active.
  Some of the links are directed at media organizations that have their own archives, where you can obtain the desired information from a given link, usually for a small fee. Despite these drawbacks, the archive is fairly content rich, and gives a good overview of the dark years of the struggle to reopen the Belle Isle Aquarium.
  
  The Friends of Belle Isle Aquarium have come a long way since those early days. Most of the interaction is carried our on their Facebook site, which now comprises hundreds of members.
