After reading the post on detroitfunk about the Packard being boarded up, I stopped by to have a look. There is a strong security presence, lots of vehicles and trucks coming and going around the part of the plant north of Grand. When I spoke to a security guard he said that the northern part of the plant had been purchased and they were filming a "college movie." He said he didn't care if we went into the south part of the plant, but that they had problems keeping people out of the north.

Same day I went past the Belle Isle Zoo and there were works and a dumpster by the side entrance. Same deal, they were shooting a movie.

A few weeks before we talked to a security guard parked in front of Lee Plaza, which was being used as a movie set.

Looks like the tax incentives are paying off in a big way! Any idea what is being filmed at those places?
