Grosse Pointe

Grosse Pointe extends along Lake St. Clair with tree-lined streets, lakeside facilities, and a network of residential neighborhoods covering 2.25 square miles.

The area transformed from a collection of cottages and farms into a commuter suburb between 1910 and 1930, gaining city status in 1934.

The Village district on Kercheval Avenue functions as a central hub with retail stores, restaurants, and a public library serving the local population.

Neff Park provides water activities in summer months and transforms into an ice skating facility during winter, offering year-round recreational options.

The city contains numerous architectural styles from the early 1900s, including neo-Georgian, Tudor revival, Dutch Colonial, and arts and crafts designs.
