Forest Park Plaza

"Old run down . Definitely needs some sprucing up!"

"Tri County cleaners . Some of the best clothes cleaners in the business. Please bring your clothes to them . You won't be disappointed."

"I only gave it a 3 unfortunately because I only went to one place which was family dollar. However I would love to try the Indian restaurant that was there. But one bad thing was just al the damn glass (broken btw) that was all the oi ugh the parking lot. Really wish at least one worker of each store would go and clean. It would just make me feel better to park over there."

"seem nice, went to little caesars pizza and the new advertised pizza was excellent. the dollar store is huge, liked that and it was fully stocked, but the did not have what i need, I will visited both stores again if I am in the area."

"The Forest Park Plaza leaves much to be desired. Be careful driving through the parking lot there are potholes just about everywhere. Although the forest park plaza leaves much to be desired it does serve a purpose. That purpose is that the people who live close by have a place they can go to shop, get some pizza or buy some lottery tickets. Family Dollar, Little Cesar's, Retail Shop, Pony keg, Bar, Cell phone shop, Car repair shop, and I'm sure other stores are located inside the Plaza. Easily noticeable from traffic (accessible to public transportation), those that witnessed this piece of property in it's prime are taken aback by the lack of care this property has received. Quite frankly, it's gone down. I've shared my opinion on forest park in other reviews, so I will limit my careful critiques. I do wish, that the city officials of Forest Park would do more to restore and maintain this area of the city. Ways the forest park officials could do that is by enlisting volunteers, establish a summer work program for teens where they help to beautify the neighborhood, reach out to investors who are community and people oriented and care about social change. Things along those lines would help. The demographic has changed entirely in this area. It is truly a melting pot, people from Central America, Nepali, Asia, various countries in Africa, Russia all share this neighborhood, doing more to build community seems like a no brainer. This area, once considered the business district deserves to be vibrant again. This area deserves to have businesses that meet the needs of the entire community, training programs, entertainment, recreation etc. The biggest questions that is floating around in the mind of people who live in Forest Park or frequent the area is, what are the plans for forest park? What is going on?"
