Welcome to Forest Park
Just 10 miles west of Chicago, Forest Park is one of the near west suburbs’ most vibrant communities. Historic Madison Street serves as the village’s downtown and features an eclectic mix of casual and fine dining, antiques shops, art galleries, specialty shops, retail stores, nightlife and more. Popular community events, a Jeff Award-winning theatre group, and our own French Market make downtown Forest Park an exciting destination any time of the year.
