CHICAGO (WBBM NEWSRADIO) -- Construction is to begin next month on the Obama Presidential Center unless a court challenge delays it.
The group Protect Our Parks has asked a federal court to hold up the start of construction of the Obama Presidential Center in Jackson Park on Aug. 16. In the lawsuit filed in April, the group asked the court to review and enforce the federal laws designed to “to protect local historic sites, environmental impacts, impairment of dedicated public parkland, and related community natural resources.”
According to Crain’s, the matter is back in court Tuesday.
Protect Our Parks has repeatedly said they are not opposed to the center, but believe that placing it in an alternate site was not seriously considered. The group said there would be more economic and environmental benefits to putting the Obama Center in another place like nearby Washington Park.
Obama Foundation lawyers argued time is money, and that any delay in construction would cost more than $2 million a month.

Should be the size of an outhouse
I left Chicago for good a few years ago.
It’s toilet
There goes the neighborhood.
The Kenyan from Indonesia is not a natural born citizen and was never eligible to be President.
Let it be built.
Then protest it.
Remember, according to liberals, one can destroy things when they are protesting.
Bring it.
Burn it.
Done.
The Traitorobama Center needs to be next to a sewage treatment plant able to handle the Center’s production of political excrement.
The Democrats would be fools to let that be built to honor the worthless worst president ever.They will regret it and pay a fortune politically trying to erase Obama just like all their other mistakes in the past.God Bless President Trump and continue to shine your grace on him.
Put it on Mars—let the pervert billionaires go visit it.
Built over the White City.
Not a coinkydink.
Barry’s bribed the locals.
What the heck is presidential about this eyesore? Nothing from his time in office will be stored there, IIRC.
. . . and confined to the basement thereof.
there’s plenty of other places for his crap “library,” but Obama and his propaganda masters arrogantly want Jackson Park exactly because it is the historic centerpiece of the South Side of Chicago. Its a beautiful 19th century park, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, once held the world’s fair, fronts lake Michigan and has the grand museum of Science and Industry Building.
By placing Obama’s crap “library” in such a place, it elevates his status, which otherwise would ultimately decline to nothing. Typical communist thinking - placing a criminal or nobody at the center of a historical place elevates their status, like Lenin’s body placed in the Kremlin. I’m surprised they haven’t proposed putting it on the national Mall.
Bingo. Not a NBC.
For the record, the Obama Presidential Center is a tourist urinal. The center is the only reason for visiting the city and taking a piss on the center is a good reason for the visit
It should be built in Kenya....🤓
Southside Chicago has plenty of public housing projects that ought to be torn down anyhow. Build it there. Don’t destroy a public park.
Couldn’t be Obama approved to much white.
That’s really it? No wonder the rubes don’t want it. That is just plain ugly and doesn’t fit in with the surroundings.
