Today the Obama Foundation submitted its formal plans to the city of Chicago for construction of the Obama Presidential Center. The campus will be built in the historic South Side Jackson Park. A series of approvals must happen first. And the campus design has been tweaked to reflect some of the community concerns about protecting park space.
WBEZ South Side reporter Natalie Moore joined host Melba Lara to discuss the changes included in today’s plan.
