"En la década de 1950, el vecino Arturo Cárrega decidió recuperar el terreno donde primero había corrido un angosto arroyo y más tarde el tren. Cárrega convocó al pintor Quinquela Martín, que bautizó a la calle de 100 metros como “Caminito” por el título del popular tango de 1926 de Peñalosa y Filiberto. Al paseo se fueron sumando las donaciones de distintos artistas. En 1959, Caminito se convirtió en un museo a cielo abierto y sin puertas."
"In the 50’s, one of the neighbors, Arturo Cárrega, intended to recover the lands where a stream had initially passed and then the railway had been built. He shared his idea with the painter Benito Quinquela Martin. They decided to baptize the 100-meter-long street under the name of Caminito in homage to the popular tango song written by Peñalosa and Filiberto in 1926. Different artists make contributions to this shortcut. Thus, in 1959, Caminito became a museum without sidewalks neither gates."
