Your St. Matthews Interview - Louisville Magazine

I’m Josh, editor of Louisville Magazine, and — in collaboration with the Chamber of St. Matthews — we’re wondering:

Where in St. Matthews do you feel most at home?

Below, you’ll find that question and several others about the neighborhood. You don’t have to answer all of the questions but certainly can. We want you to be able to say as much or as little as you’d like and are hoping at least some questions will spark something for you. Would love it if you’d answer at least two or three. And when answering, the more specific the better.

If you have thoughts or questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch:

josh@louisville.com

Deadline: Friday, June 21

Thank you so, so much for sharing your story. — Josh

What piece of art — a book, a painting, a movie, a TV show, etc. — reminds you of St. Matthews, and why?

If St. Matthews were a car, what would it be, and why? (If this one seems too weird, feel free to skip. We've just asked it before and have loved the answers from those who do have something to share.)

In one word (or so) — based on conversations you have with family and friends and colleagues about the neighborhood — what’s something about St. Matthews that other people seem to worry about a lot more than you do?

And in one word (or so) — based on conversations you have with family and friends and colleagues about the neighborhood — what’s something about St. Matthews that you seem to worry about a lot more than most people you know?

Plenty in Louisville needs mending. At the same time, some problems seem like they’ll always be with us. Can you think of a problem that we always seem to be trying to solve as a city but probably can’t?

If you could change one thing about St. Matthews, what would that be?

Next year at this time, I’ll know St. Matthews got a bit better when I see .

And finally, we always like to include this space here, in case you have anything else you want to share — about your answers or anything else.
