North Park historian and regular Uptown News columnist Katherine Hon has published a book about the history of many of the buildings, businesses and people that make up the fabric of North Park. All of the articles contained in “History Snippets: Past Matters Stories of North Park” originally ran in Uptown News as part of her “Past Matters” column, which began in late 2014. While regular readers may have seen the information before, this is the first time the columns will be collected together.
