Boricua! Just 4 miles west of downtown, Humboldt Park is a vibrant, simmering ethno-dimensional taco wrapped around a bustling 219-acre park. Historically diverse, culturally magnificent, with Scandinavian and Polish roots, Humboldt's now the beating heart of Chicago’s mighty Puerto Rican community. Suffice it to say, we’ve got it all: jibaritos, pierogis, ancient oaks, cold beer, cumbia, slow-pitch, good people.
Equally stunning and decrepit.
Salsedo's legendary May Day parties, lousy with kegs and a thousand lefties, may be a thing of the past, but the vibe lives on. Sure, they've been offering stellar offset and digital printing services for an impressive four decades, but the walls are the real draw here. Plastered over nearly every inch of prime space are vintage political posters, most printed in-house. The space is a veritable museum for the most significant social justice movements of our time. Maybe the revolution won't be televised, but it sure is being printed.
