Highlights

By the end of the civil war St. Louis had more than a few wealthy citizens and no particular "it" spot for them to sink their money. That's when America’s first city park west of the Mississippi began to garner an elite reputation. Socialite names in St Louis had their gorgeous three-story Victorians built here. Little did those people know that a natural disaster would change Lafayette Square forever. We talk about the neighborhood history, explore the park and stroll the streets of the neighborhood. ***please write your preferred tour time in the “special requirements“ section and you will be contacted after purchase to coordinate your booking.
