About Humboldt Park

Area Information

Welcome to Humboldt Park. This vibrant, ethnically-diverse neighborhood was founded in 1869 by German immigrants to honor naturalist and geographer Alexander von Humboldt. His name was bestowed upon the neighborhood's most popular local park?307 acres of beautiful land that's now the epicenter of the area and host to a number of ethnic celebrations. In the past, the park was the historic setting of a number protests and uprisings throughout the years. Despite its reputation for a fair amount of crime, with a combination of vintage three-flat buildings, single-family homes and a host of new construction projects, Humboldt Park is a rapidly developing and culturally diverse neighborhood attracting visitors from other neighborhoods and cities. With authentic Puerto Rican cafes and markets next to eclectic art galleries and shops, there's something here for everyone.

History of Humboldt Park

Humboldt Park has always been known as a melting pot. German immigrants settled here first, in 1869, followed by Danish and Norwegian homesteaders in the 1870s. Polish, Italian and Jewish immigrants made their way here in the early to mid-1900s; Puerto Rican immigrants arrived in the 1950s and 1960s. With the Civil Rights Movement creating a climate of rebellion and confrontation across the country in the 1960s, Humboldt Park experienced its first riots in 1966. The historic Division Street Riots, which took place for three days in June of that year, were among the first Puerto Rican uprisings in the United States. The riots erupted after a Chicago Police officer shot a young Puerto Rican man. The historic significance of the era lives on in the Paseo Boricua, a six-block stretch of Division Street that is the only Puerto Rican-themed commercial corridor in the country. Ten authentic Puerto Rican restaurants as well as other businesses line the street and two giant gateway flags welcome visitors into the fold.

Similar to the Near West Side neighborhoods Avondale, Logan Square and Ukrainian Village, Humboldt Park continues to develop and thrive despite the occasional crime story in the news.
