Cake 171- Lafayette Park

Found November 27, 2014


Lafayette Park was dedicated in 1851 as one of the first public parks in the city of St. Louis and by far the largest of its era, at 30 acres.  It is considered to be the oldest urban park west of the Mississippi.  The park is now home to a playground, walking path, many sculptures, baseball field, and a police sub-station, as well as a beautiful iron bridge.
