What had been in the 19t h century a largely southern and rural African American culture became a c ulture deeply infused with urban sensibility in the 20th century. And what had been a marginalized population in Chicago emerged by the mid-20th cen tury as a powerful force in the city’s political\, economic\, and cultur al life \n$30\; $25 members  \nTour runs 1.5 to 2 hours.

As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence\, we’re also taking time to c onsider the ways people in the United States practice democracy through ci vic action\, including by making art\, establishing community\, and cultur al expression. \nLocated on the Northwest Side of Chicago\, the community has been defined by its strong cultural presence throughout the ages. Humb oldt Park was named after naturalist and geographer Alexander von Humboldt (1759–1859) in 1869. Interestingly\, the one time that von Humboldt vis ited the United States\, he did not travel to Chicago. The community was a nnexed into Chicago the same year as its naming\, following the creation o f the West Park System (which also includes Douglass and Garfield Park). T hese three parks—connected by the Boulevard Park System—were establish ed to provide Chicago residents with some relief from the congested landsc ape of the city. \nIn a city known for its cultural and ethnic diversity\, Humboldt Park stands out as the center of Puerto Rican culture in both Ch icago and the American Midwest. Since the 1960s\, it has been home to Chic ago’s Puerto Rican community. This thought-provoking tour explores the h istory of the iconic West Side neighborhood through the public art proudly displayed along the six blocks of Division Street (Paseo Boricua) and in Humboldt Park. \n$25\, $22.50 members \nTour runs approximately 90 minutes . Meet at Ciclo Urbano\, 2459 W.

Before the opening of the Michigan Avenue Bridge (now DuSab le Bridge) in 1920\, it was isolated from the downtown business district a nd home to only a few wealthy families\, such as the McCormicks\, Palmers\ , and Ryersons. \nThe area soon became the heart of the upper crust of Chi cago society. Sociologist Harvey Warren Zorbaugh\, who claimed that colleg e boys returning from the East Coast dubbed the area the “Gold Coast\, ” immortalized it in his book The Gold Coast and the Slum: A Sociologica l Study of Chicago’s Near North Side (University of Chicago Press\, 1929 \; reprint 1983). The density of wealth in the Gold Coast buffered it agai nst the deterioration that threatened other portions of the North Side in the 1950s. \nGaze at ornate architecture by Frank Lloyd Wright and Louis S ullivan\, step onto a rare wood-block alleyway\, and take in Chicago’s e arly mansions\, including the Archbishop’s Residence. \n$25\, $22.50 mem bers  \nTour runs 1.5 to 2 hours.

Before the opening of the Michigan Avenue Bridge (now DuSab le Bridge) in 1920\, it was isolated from the downtown business district a nd home to only a few wealthy families\, such as the McCormicks\, Palmers\ , and Ryersons. \nThe area soon became the heart of the upper crust of Chi cago society.

The density of wealth in the Gold Coast buffered it agai nst the deterioration that threatened other portions of the North Side in the 1950s. \nGaze at ornate architecture by Frank Lloyd Wright and Louis S ullivan\, step onto a rare wood-block alleyway\, and take in Chicago’s e arly mansions\, including the Archbishop’s Residence. \n$25\, $22.50 mem bers  \nTour runs 1.5 to 2 hours.

Humb oldt Park was named after naturalist and geographer Alexander von Humboldt (1759–1859) in 1869. Interestingly\, the one time that von Humboldt vis ited the United States\, he did not travel to Chicago. The community was a nnexed into Chicago the same year as its naming\, following the creation o f the West Park System (which also includes Douglass and Garfield Park). T hese three parks—connected by the Boulevard Park System—were establish ed to provide Chicago residents with some relief from the congested landsc ape of the city. \nIn a city known for its cultural and ethnic diversity\, Humboldt Park stands out as the center of Puerto Rican culture in both Ch icago and the American Midwest. Since the 1960s\, it has been home to Chic ago’s Puerto Rican community. This thought-provoking tour explores the h istory of the iconic West Side neighborhood through the public art proudly displayed along the six blocks of Division Street (Paseo Boricua) and in Humboldt Park. \n$25\, $22.50 members \nTour runs approximately 90 minutes .

Before the opening of the Michigan Avenue Bridge (now DuSab le Bridge) in 1920\, it was isolated from the downtown business district a nd home to only a few wealthy families\, such as the McCormicks\, Palmers\ , and Ryersons. \nThe area soon became the heart of the upper crust of Chi cago society. Sociologist Harvey Warren Zorbaugh\, who claimed that colleg e boys returning from the East Coast dubbed the area the “Gold Coast\, ” immortalized it in his book The Gold Coast and the Slum: A Sociologica l Study of Chicago’s Near North Side (University of Chicago Press\, 1929 \; reprint 1983).
