    "Most restaurants don't mind if your dog is a Service animal. I have seen a person's come in with medium to small dogs and their very child and family friendly.. If your dog doesn't pose a threat more times than not they will allow you to bring your pet indoors."

    "As a 12 year resident and Realtor who has been selling this area for years, I have enjoyed seeing Lafayette Square take off in popularity. A strong neighborhood community is here due to strong neighborhood involvement. The park is outstanding with free concerts, bike races, films, and the famous house tour. I have sold homes to young families with kids, professionals, single, couples, and retirees. This is a popular 2nd Home in the City neighborhood too. A strong commitment to volunteerism is present here too. A "small town" feeling in a great location in St Louis MO."
