Zug Island is man made Island along the Straits of Detroit where fiery coke ovens and blast furnaces turn iron ore into steel. When I came to Detroit as a college student in search of summer work, my first job was on Zug Island which I entered across the bridge in the background.  Hot and choked with smoke and dust it was a hell on earth.  Now somewhat tamed by environmental laws, day lilies sprout along the banks of its canal giving the view an ironically idyllic feel while betraying the millions of man hours of hard grinding work the island represents.
