Review & FAQ:
A winding, beautiful street, Lovers Lane was immortalized in the poem “Lovers Lane, Saint Jo,” which was written by the poet Eugene Field. The street today is the site of several fine houses, however, Lovers Lane was once a remote country road back when Eugene Field was courting Julia Comstock, his future wife, in a horse-and-buggy. There is now a monument that commemorates the poet, which can be found at the intersection of Lovers Lane and Northwest Parkway. There is also a primary marker, as well as banner and entry signs that identify and interpret the poetry and history of Eugene Field.
