Not far from the district where Barak Obama started his public activities, the 44th US president met with the locals to present his plan of Chicago’s development.
His center will be located near the Michigan lake. There will be a lot of apartment buildings with a tower in the middle. There, there will be the Obama’s museum. This project may become the highlight of the city.
However, a part of the population stand against the new neighborhood, for example, two hundred lecturers of the local university. They believe the former president did not involve the publicity to the discussions of future project. At the same time Obama is concerned his center will help transform the district, where for the last years the level of criminal activity has increased. He hopes to change the reputation of the neighborhood by 2021.
