At certain points you can see some of the skyline. There is limited free street parking around the park."

He was born 1934 in the same room as my mom's grandmother 1913 at St Elizabeth hospital on western and Hirsch. His building in 1945 is my favorite cafe! . I highly recommend Cafe Calao 2638 w Division this is my favorite place in Humboldt Park behind the museum under the weeping willow tree"

The area between the boat house and the field house is probably one of the most beautiful walks in the Chicago area. The only thing that wasn't great was that there was quite a bit of litter around the edges of the park when I was there."
