The Obama Presidential Center is a gargantuan eyesore designed, over local opposition, to destroy Chicago's historic Jackson Park. A lawsuit this phony tribute to Barack Obama - which will include any of his presidential papers -- was not successful before the Supreme Court in August 2020, as it declined to fully review the merits.[1] https://www.politico.com/news/2021/08/20/amy-coney-barrett-obama-presidential-center-506381
Opponents offered a far superior design which could have been built a mere 2 miles away in underused Washington Park, which is connected to Jackson Park by the Emerald Necklace.[2] [3]
Both parks were designed by America’s preeminent landscape architect, Frederick Law Olmsted.
