About Lafayette Park
A revitalized neighborhood, Lafayette Park is known for the Mies Van der Rohe Residential District, with postwar modernist houses and high-rises designed by the German-born architect. Lafayette Plaisance Park has shaded lawns, while the mural-adorned Dequindre Cut Greenway offers paved cycling paths. Thai and soul food restaurants dot the area, which is also home to urban winery Detroit Vineyards.
