Life at Parc Lafayette: Shopping, Dining & Services Just Steps from Lafayette Gardens Apartments
A little history: Lafayette was founded in 1821 by French-speaking Acadian Jean Mouton and renamed in 1884 for General Lafayette, the French military hero who helped the American Army during the Revolutionary War. Once powered by agriculture, the area transformed in the 1940s when the petroleum and natural gas industries surged.
Today, Lafayette stands as a thriving hub for medicine, transportation, finance, technology, entertainment, education, and retail. It's also a cultural destination, celebrated for its Cajun and Creole heritage and known as the retail epicenter of Acadiana’s seven-parish region.
In the heart of this dynamic city lies River Ranch, a traditional neighborhood community designed for walkability, beauty, and convenience. Its blend of residential and commercial spaces gives residents access to some of the best shopping and dining without ever leaving the neighborhood.
Just one block northeast of Lafayette Gardens Apartments is one of the area’s premier destinations—Parc Lafayette. Located at the corner of Kaliste Saloom and Camellia, this upscale mixed-use center combines boutique shopping, exceptional dining, beauty services, fitness, entertainment, and professional offices. Nearly all businesses are locally owned and operated, making Parc Lafayette a genuine reflection of Lafayette’s hometown character.
