Construction has stalled on the Obama Presidential Library until at least 2019 while the federal government reviews a rental scheme that allowed the Obama Foundation to build its library in the middle of a historic park and around major streets on Chicago's South Side.
According to the Chicago Tribune, the Obama Foundation won't give a specific timeline for construction but expects to begin building in 2019, more than two years after the project was unveiled. The library campus, which includes a digital archive of former president Barack Obama's papers, meeting rooms, sports facilities, and a branch of the Chicago public library, is slated to open in 2021.
