WELCOME!
Hello
and welcome to the official website of the St. Louis Park Historical Society. We hope that the information in these pages will be of interest to current and former residents of the Park
and others interested in our City.
The information presented comes from a variety of sources,
including newspapers, books, yearbooks, phone directories, interviews, and materials collected by the founder of the Society, Marie Hartmann.
One of the most important sources of information comes from
the unpublished manuscript
St. Louis Park: A
Story of a Village. It was written in 1952 by
U of M student Norman
Thomas, who had access to a tremendous number of
documents that have since been lost or destroyed. For
the first time we have made this monograph available on our
website.
Given the varied sources, we cannot guarantee that all of this information is correct, and welcome any additions and corrections. Please contact us with your contributions and comments.
We hope our
History Index will make it
easy to find what you are looking for as you browse
through the topics.
Due to the fact that National Night Out falls on the first Tuesday of August, our next meeting will be on Tuesday, August 10 at 7:00 at the Depot. Everyone is invited to attend.
