At FPNA’s 50th anniversary gathering on August 22, 2026, neighbors sat down at a storytelling booth at Skyline Tavern and talked about what it has meant to live on the ridge above Forest Park. This is that record: fifty years of neighborhood history, told by the people who lived it, in their own words. All interviews are here now. A different story is featured each week on Instagram @forestparkneighbors through the end of 2026.
The complete interviews, one neighbor at a time.
Watch them all in order on YouTube.
One memory, one voice, about a minute each.
Interviews conducted by Jenna Cordisco, with Rich Kolbell. Event photography by Rich Kolbell. Our thanks to Scott Becker and the Skyline Tavern, Ralph Brooks, and Jason Dullack for setting up the storytelling booth and keeping it running on the day. Participants consented to the recording and to its release by the Forest Park Neighborhood Association.
