The historic neighborhood was once home to Eastern European immigrants, but in the 1950s, it became a stronghold for Chicago's Puerto Rican community.

Eduardo Arocho guided Val on her tour of Humboldt Park. Arocho is an entrepreneur and poet, best known as the owner of the Paseo Boricua Tour Co. The company sponsors walking tours through the Humboldt Park community.

Together, Eduardo and Val visited notable spots in Humboldt Park, including Clemente High School, which was named after Puerto Rican baseball Hall of Famer Roberto Clemente.

They then traveled west on Division Street, to a section known as "Paseo Boricua", a stretch of four and a half blocks flanked by two large Puerto Rican flags. While on "Paseo Boricua," they visited a number of murals located in the area.
