Cake visit
Forest Park Forever works with the City of St. Louis, volunteers and donors and members to preserve the park and bring it back to an American urban park once again.
Some of the renovations we have seen on our cake hunt through Forest Park that included the Grand Basin, the Jewel Box and the World’s Fair Pavilion. Upcoming restorations include the reopening of the St. Louis Mounted Police Stables to transforming the Upper Muny Lot into a vibrant Festival & Parking Plaza.
