  • Driving Tour of Grosse Pointe Red Italics Indicate Houses That Have
    Driving Tour of Grosse Pointe Long before it became American in 1796, this land that curves southeast to edge the Detroit River at Windmill Pointe and then falls back along Lake St. Clair to Gaukler Pointe was known by the name of Grosse Pointe. Its woods and swamps were not conducive to travel or farming, but Indians came for fur trapping and the French had already begun to settle. What is now East Jefferson Avenue and Lake Shore Road was probably an Indian trail skirting the Grand Marais (Great Marsh) and following the shore line - the only access by land to Grosse Pointe at that time. After the 1760 surrender of Detroit to the British during the French and Indian War, some French families left the town and joined Grosse Pointe’s pioneer settlers there since the 1750s. These habitants built houses near the lake for access to good water and transportation, planted orchards and cultivated just enough land to supply their needs. Their properties, known as “ribbon farms,” had in general three to six hundred feet of shoreline and extended inland for a mile or more. Early Grosse Pointe settlers were relatively unaffected by the American Revolution. It was not until 1796 that the British left, and the Detroit area was taken over by the United States. Because of entangled Indian, French and English claims to land, the federal government had to establish a Land Board to define the ownership of land along the lake. In 1887, an interurban street railway from Waterworks Park to Fisher Road reduced travel time to the Pointe.

From the hundreds of oral histories in our archive, the assistance and input of our many partners and the latest historical scholarship, we have developed the exhibit to allow visitors to better understand the events of July 1967, what led up to them, where we are today and how to connect to efforts moving Detroit forward. Join us to mark the opening with an evening reception and ticketed preview on Friday, June 23. On Saturday, June 24 and Sunday, June 25, visit the museum for the exhibition’s free public opening. These two days will feature performances and film screenings, discussion forums, family-friendly activities and numerous opportunities to share your unique Detroit story. Throughout the next week, Monday, June 26 to Friday, June 30, the museum will offer more daily programming around the exhibition. Take your time to view Detroit 67: Perspectives at your own pace, and then join us for a series of behind the scenes talks about the exhibition development process, our community engagement strategy and our oral history project.
