Outdoor Lighting in Forest Park
Forest Park's brick storefronts on Madison Street and classic two-flats and bungalows are an underrated lighting canvas — a little layered light goes a long way.
For over two decades, Paramount Outdoor Lighting Group has been designing, installing, and maintaining outdoor lighting on Forest Park properties of every size. Our four specialized divisions — Advanced Lightscaping (landscape), Frosty's Holiday Lighting (seasonal), Patio Lighting Pros (outdoor rooms), and Roof Lites Chicago (permanent JellyFish) — give Forest Park homeowners and property managers a single accountable partner for every category of outdoor lighting.

Local Landmarks and Context
Forest Park's character — defined by landmarks like Madison Street, The Park (Forest Park), Altenheim Grove, and the surrounding Historic Downtown Forest Park area — informs how we approach lighting design here. The architecture, plantings, lot sizes, and street character all shape what kind of lighting reads as right for the place. Lighting designs that work in a historic madison street street don't necessarily work in a different setting, and vice versa. We design for Forest Park specifically.
