Diablo Boulevard and Golden Gate Way, across from Mike's Auto Body, thanks to a team including Terry Ring, Larry Blodgett, Buddy Brodwin, Mike Henn, Beverlee Hajek, Matt Pease, and Brian Aiello. The benches were sanded and re-varnished, and the Gazebo was power-washed, sanded and repainted. This was one of several times in the past that the Lafayette Rotary provided a face-lift to the Gazebo.
The "Memorial Gazebo" commemorates Lafayette's participation in the bicentennial of the signing of the U. S. Constitution, and was dedicated Sept. 20, 1987. In addition to the Gazebo Dedication Ceremony, Lafayette celebrated the bicentennial with a Horse and Carriage Days parade that included more than 50 groups.
The Lafayette Gazebo is a great starting location for a stroll through downtown Lafayette, or a walk just 0.24 miles south to join the Lafayette-Moraga Regional Trail at Foye Drive. There is ample parking behind the Gazebo on Mt. Diablo Boulevard.
