A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit that sought to prevent the construction of the Obama Presidential Center in a park on Chicago’s South Side.
“We know many in the city and community are eager for us to continue our work to bring jobs and investment to the South Side and the ruling yesterday allows us to do just that,” the foundation said in a statement Wednesday. “We have appreciated the voices of the many leaders who weighed in on this issue with the court to move the Center forward as the city focuses on its recovery efforts and steps to build a more inclusive economy.
Kristen Cabanban, spokeswoman for the city's law department, said in a written statement that the city was"pleased with the court’s decision.” Protect Our Parks founder and president Herb Caplan told WTTW News that the organization would appeal the ruling.
