The site has a long history and the Museum of Science and Industry knows what it costs to build on that.

The foundation released tax documents Monday showing increased fundraising and expenses.

A new economic analysis gives a rosier view of the impact the Obama library could have on the city.

Alex Goldenberg was arrested for trespassing outside the South Shore Cultural Center.

Closing Cornell Drive through Jackson Park cuts off the path between Lake Shore Drive and the Skyway.

Obama said the project would include a museum, library, forum, rooftop garden, plaza and sledding hill.

The nonprofit is searching now for people in Woodlawn, Washington Park and South Shore for its board.

The new organization will make sure Woodlawn, Washington Park and South Shore benefit from the library.

Ralph Appelbaum Associates will lead a team of Chicago designers to develop the Obama library exhibits.

Leslie Hairston said the foundation needs to do a better job of communicating with area residents.

The former commander in chief was in Chicago Wednesday to discuss plans for his presidential library.
