Continuing up the stairs is a comprehensive timeline of Lafayette from specific key events that happened in the building to broader US history to best contextualize how Lafayette was always shifting with time. Emphasizing the project’s title, Long Live Lafayette is truly to keep the life of Lafayette alive through education, saved histories, relationships and being honest about the grief and devastation of the 2013 closure. See the full detailed timeline on the Timeline page to learn this history.
