The homes of Lafayette Square are known for their striking architecture, vibrant culture and rich history. Combining the art of the past with the innovation of the future, Lafayette Square has become one of St. Louis’ most desirable neighborhoods. Sitting on the north side of Hickory Street between Missouri Avenue and Macay Place sits the Square’s newest addition: Lafayette Reserve. A 14-home project by Versa Development, tied together by a distinct vision of what the best city living looks like today.

While city living can be exhilarating, it does not always come with the comforts of home some crave. Lafayette Reserve’s goal is to bridge the gap and create the ideal environment for those who want to live in the city without losing the feel of a small town community. With spacious rooms and just enough outdoor green space, the homes feature plenty of natural lighting, high quality finishes and a beautiful location.

The beauty of Lafayette Reserve lies in the community around it. “Lafayette Square is a tremendously attractive neighborhood, and we’re building more Lafayette Square homes, but to 21st century standards,” says Jeff Winzerling of Versa Development & Rubicon, Inc. Lafayette Reserve sits on some of the last remaining new development sites in the Lafayette Square neighborhood, keeping new homeowners close to the community while still remaining close to city landmarks like Soulard Farmers Market, SSM Health St. Louis University Hospital, St. Louis Union Station and more.
