Lafayette Street (US 27) serves as a major gateway corridor for those visiting Fort Wayne's Downtown and as a primary route for traveling to and from the Fort Wayne International airport via Airport Expressway/Paulding Road. In addition to serving as a gateway to the heart of Fort Wayne, Lafayette Street connects south side residents to area attractions and provides a first impression of the neightborhoods that are fronting and adjacent to this roadway.
The City is currently working with American Structurepoint to study ways to improve a segment of Lafayette Street from McKinnie to Pettit so that the roadway design is in context with the surrounding residential land uses, thereby providing a safe and attractive environment for residents and enhancing the value of the adjacent neighborhoods.
