How Preservation Park Cities Protects Our Community’s Heritage
Nov 13, 2025 Season 8 Episode 43
Martha Jackson

The Park Cities wouldn’t be what it is today without the people dedicated to preserving its history and charm. I sat down with Jason Morski, president of Preservation Park Cities, and Larry Good, architect and author of 100 Houses in the Park Cities, to talk about the stories behind our most iconic homes and why preservation matters now more than ever. 

From the famous “Mushroom House” to the beloved landmarks that define our neighborhood, this episode is a love letter to the past — and a reminder that protecting it keeps our community special for generations to come.
