CHICAGO (WLS) -- The head of the Obama Foundation, as well as local dignitaries, made the formal announcement Wednesday that Jackson Park will officially host the Obama Presidential Center.
"The President and First Lady are proud that the Obama Foundation is developing the Obama Presidential Center on the South Side, a community that they call home. Of course we all know the South Side is a historical place with vibrant institutions such as the DuSable Museum, the University of Chicago and the Museum of Science and Industry," Obama Foundation Chairman Marty Nesbitt said.
The Obama Foundation executives, Mayor Rahm Emanuel and several aldermen cheered this addition to Jackson Park and to the South Side of Chicago.

The Institute of Christ the King has a church nearby on 63rd and Woodlawn or so. Maybe they can send an exorcist over.
A really great reason to never go to Chicago again.
It has wonderful and extensive revisionist history section.
The south side is also the ghetto, but they didn’t mention that fact.
In consideration to the prospective visitors (aka victims or drug cartel collateral damage) they should ensure a police station and hospital are nearby.
Visitors to the Obama Presidential Center will enjoy the ride in the Armored Vehicle from a safe location
I hope they will employ a 24 hour graffiti cleaning service.......it’s that type of neighborhood.

I was just about to ask about that.
A great place for a library-—the homeless can spend the day there during the cold winters.

The security will be amazing ,you’ll have to know the Koran before you enter
For Andrew Jackson, not Jesse Jackson!
Quick, where's my safe space??
That’s nice . . . if the visitors can get there without being shot.
“The security will be amazing ,you’ll have to know the Koran before you enter”
They will probably have separate entrances and areas for men and women. :-)
.
Don’t know how long it takes to walk there. No one’s ever made it.
One thing for sure, it won’t be open at night.
Oh you can go, nobody in their right mind would go to the South Side anyway; Obama Library or not. :-)
There goes the neighborhood.
And/or carjacked.
It was taken in Kokomo, IN by a local newspaper shortly after the idiot was elected.
. We FReeped the papers online poll and they shut it down.
