Encyclopedic overview
Grosse Pointe Shores (officially named the Village of Grosse Pointe Shores, a Michigan City) is a city in Wayne and Macomb counties in the U.S. state of Michigan. One of the five "Grosse Pointe" suburbs of Detroit, Grosse Pointe Shores is located on the shore of Lake St. Clair, roughly 13 miles (20.9 km) northeast of downtown Detroit. As of the 2020 census, Grosse Pointe Shores had a population of 2,647, down from 3,008 in 2010.
Grosse Pointe Shores was incorporated as a village in 1911 and was part of Grosse Pointe Township in Wayne County and Lake Township in Macomb County. Both townships became defunct with the village incorporated as a city in 2009. It is a northeastern suburb of Metro Detroit and is the northernmost city included into the Grosse Pointe area, and the only one of the five Grosse Pointes to not border the city of Detroit. Located along the shores of Lake St. Clair, the city is well known as the location of the Edsel and Eleanor Ford House and the Grosse Pointe Yacht Club.
