Jackson Park was the site of a NIKE air defense site in the 50s and early 60s. After it was retired, it was bulldozed under and returned to the Chicago Park District. Underground facilities - tanks, pipes, etc were covered over and abandoned. Is obama building on this area?

Possible, I'll try to find out. I didn't know Nike sites were so numerous. That must have been a very expensive program.
