Join us at the historic Alger House at the Grosse Pointe War Memorial for a guided two-hour tour that brings the elegance and complexity of early 20th-century domestic life into focus. Built in 1910, this stately mansion offers a window into both the public and private lives of the era, from richly restored first-floor rooms like the Library to the contrasting layouts of the family and servant quarters on the second floor. Guests will gain insight into the home’s evolving role over time, including its use as a Detroit Institute of Arts annex, while viewing archival photographs and original floor plans during an introductory presentation. You'll also visit the Fred Alger Center, where sweeping views from the Ballroom highlight the property's lakeside grandeur. With future restorations of the Dining Room and Conservatory on the horizon, this tour offers a unique before-and-after perspective on one of Grosse Pointe’s architectural and cultural treasures.
