From Fox News: It’s official – Obama library will be on Chicago’s South Side ~

In a news release, the Barack Obama Foundation announced early Tuesday that the library would be erected on park land that was proposed for the site by the University of Chicago. The site was selected over bids made by Columbia University in New York, the University of Hawaii and the University of Illinois at Chicago.

 
Considering that the Windy City is where the evil plot to fundamentally unmake America was hatched, I guess the location is quite fitting ~

“With a library and a foundation on the South Side of Chicago, not only will we be able to encourage and affect change locally, but what we can also do is to attract the world to Chicago.”
Obama said in a video accompanying the release. “All the strands of my life came together and I really became a man when I moved to Chicago 😯 That’s where I was able to apply that early idealism to try to work in communities in public service. That’s where I met my wife. That’s where my children were born” […]
 

“Over the past months, the city has come together to bring the library to its rightful place in Chicago,” Mayor Rahm Emanuel said in the release.

Hope they’re not wasting a lot of taxpayer dollars on this fiasco. It shouldn’t really be too expensive move the building from its present location in Detroit…
