Lafayette Park is another hill-top park set amid the Pacific Height's graceful homes. This terraced park offers commanding views of the entire city and the San Francisco Bay and Golden Gate Bridge.

Lafayette Park is slated for a $10 million dollar renovation project that will enter the formal planning phase in April of this year, begin construction in May of next year and be complete in the spring of 2013. Current tentative plans call for a low barrier fence with plantings along one side of the dog play area in the southeast corner of the four-block park.
