—”Not literally under water. Like totally due to climate change or something.”

Close to it.
Large pumps will be burning electric 24/7 to keep lower levels dry.
They are just across Lake Shore Drive from the lake and not much above it.

“The center, which is scheduled to open in February 2025, is being built in a dangerous place. The water table is high enough to require constant drainage—a peril that will be compounded by major storms off Lake Michigan. An award-winning alternative design on private land west of nearby Washington Park would be less costly and safer to build and would provide far better access to the South Side community that is the center’s target audience.”

I was hoping it was due to sewage.
