Lonely Planet review for Humboldt Park
This 207-acre park, which lends its name to the surrounding neighborhood, comes out of nowhere and gobsmacks you with Mother Nature. A lagoon brushed by native plants takes up much of the green space, and birdsong flickers in the air. The 1907 Prairie School boathouse rises up from the lagoon’s edge and serves as the park’s showpiece. A gravel path takes off from here and circles the water, where you’ll sometimes see people casting fishing lines.
