Detroit Bowling Alleys

[EastsideAl]

I learned to bowl [[well, as much as I ever learned to bowl) in a Detroit Public School program at the vast Great Lakes Bowling Center that once stood at the corner of Woodward and Baltimore. I also used to go with my cousins to Jefferson Recreation [[where they had human pinsetters much longer than anyplace else I remember) that was over near the Cinderella Theater, and with my Dad to the still-extant Garden Bowl as well as another corridor/midtown area lanes whose name and location I no longer recall.

Jefferson Club Recreation...bowling alley was upstairs and it was in the block between Lakeview and Eastlawn. Chene Trombly never had automatic pinsetters because of building layout and the alley behind the building.
