Obama Presidential Center helped by $123 million in public infrastructure improvements – Chicago Sun-Times

A tree-lined median runs down South Stony Island Avenue in front of the Obama Presidential Center at 6001 S. Stony Island Ave. in Jackson Park.And there’s still more work to be done. The final public infrastructure costs are likely to approach $200 million. The costs are not part of the presidential center’s privately-funded $850 million price tag - the funding comes from a $174 million pot created for the center’s benefit by the state back in 2018.

And there you have it- the Pharaohs temple celebrating himself using tax money to be built in addition to being built on public land snatched from the taxpayers. Like his entire tenure, another pie in the sky, feel goody thing supposedly paid for one way but in the end the exact opposite.
