Pilsen
Heritage District · Chicago, Illinois
A Lower West Side neighbourhood named by Czech and Bohemian settlers after the city of Plzen, and Mexican-American since the 1960s when families displaced by the building of the university campus moved south into it. It carries one of the largest concentrations of outdoor murals in the United States, a free museum with the biggest Mexican art collection in the country, and a nineteenth-century Bohemian streetscape underneath all of it.
