Lafayette Park in Detroit, MI is a historic neighborhood located east of Downtown Detroit, known for its residential area housing around 4,900 people within 0.07 sq mi. The neighborhood features iconic architectural designs by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and other notable architects, with some buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Comprising two superblocks with a mix of low- and high-density housing, Lafayette Park underwent urban renewal in the mid-20th century, influenced by FHA policies and the need for mixed-income housing developments. The neighborhood's greenway and central park add to its charm and appeal, making it a significant part of Detroit's architectural and urban history.
