7. The project is located in the Washington Park neighborhood of the South Side of Chicago, Illinois.
The area is characterized by a diverse cultural history, largely African-American, and serves as the
site for the Presidential Center to be built in honor of our 44th President, Barack Obama.
The South Side served as his primary place of work for twelve years. He taught as a professor of
law at the University of Chicago Law School, until he was elected Illinois State Senator in 2004.
During his time there he even resided in East Hyde Park, a neighborhood located within the South
Side, from 2005, until he was later elected President of the United States.
The South Side’s short history tells a story of a once developing and culturally rich neighborhood
transforming into one lacking what it once had. His mission with this center is to give back to the
people that he saw suffer so intensely during his time there, and to now help raise them up. In
that sense, there is a clear cultural, social, and educational need for the center in this area -- for a
place that facilitates positive change in an increasingly poor and violent community.
One of the main challenges with this project is how to make the library appealing to both the lower
income residents of the South Side, as well as the other more affluent communities scattered
across the Chicago metropolitan area. The center should ultimately serve as a social catalyst
for the Washington Park neighborhood. So, where do you place a center like this, in a way that
creates connections both physically and socially to its surroundings? Who exactly is it serving?
What are their needs? What exactly is the center’s intention and purpose within the larger
community? These are the questions that need to be posed when considering the design of the
new Barack Obama Presidential Center.

Great Migration
1 In 1840, Irish, Italian, Polish, Lithuanian, and
Yugoslav immigrants mirgrated through Word
War II.
2 In 1850, the Illinois Constitution created
townships providing municipal services.
3 In 1862. many black southeners freed from
the Civil War migrated north to Chicago in
search of freedom. The black population was
nearly quadrupled from 4,000 to 15,000 by
1890.
4 In 1889, some townships, Lake View,
Jefferson, Lake, Hyde Park townships, and the
Austin portion of Cicero, voted to join the city of
Chicago.
5 By 1910, the South Side's black population
reached around 40,000. About 78% of the
black population was located in the "Black
Belt." This area developed into a predominatly
black community. Housing pressures and civic
unrest caused other ethnic groups, mostly
European immigrants, to move out to the city's
edges and into the suburbs.
6 The Great Migration was the result of
new employment opportunities in northern
industry drawing in much of the southern black
population.
7 In July 1919, riots, caused by racial tensions,
broke out across the city. The South Side
sustained the majority of the injuries and
deaths due to the close proximity of blacks and
whites.
8 Hansbury vs. Lee: A U.S. Supreme Court
case that challenged the juditial limitations
in the Washington Park subdivision. Racial
restrictions were challenged.
9 Cars and roads opened up neighborhoods
that were not easily accessed by public
transportation. New housing occurred in the
suburbs and the edges of the city, White Flight.
South Side's African-American neighborhoods
expanded beyond the the "Black Metropolis."
10 Housing Act of 1949: U.S. Congress funded
public housing projects in Chicago. Some of the
wards opposed the public housing, but family
housing was still constructed in the South Side
and West Side.
11 In 1955, Richard J. Daley was elected mayor
of Chicago. His last term in office was 1976.

Industrial restructures
12 Middle of the nineteenth century, economic
conditions began to change. The industrial
restructuring in meat packaging and the steel
industry cost many jobs in the South Side.
13 Civil Rights Movement allowed Educated
African-Americans, who obtained middle-class
jobs, to move out of the South Side. The South
Side's population dropped, businesses and
cultural amenities left, and concentrations of
poor families remained.
14 During Mayor Richard J. Daley's tenure,
controversy about the Dan Ryan Epressway
arose. It was perceived as an intentional
physical barrier between black and white
neighborhoods.
15 The Vice Lords, a gang, improved their
public image by shifting from their criminal
ventures to operating societal programs funded
by the governemnt and private grants. The
gang returned to old activities in the 1970s.
16 Condominium construction and conversion
gentrified various neighborhoods of South Side.
17 After 106 years of operation, the Union
Stock Yard closed. Began a shifting trend from
blue collar to white collar jobs in South Side.
18 The South Side St. Patrick's Day Parade was
founded. It was the largest St. Patrick's Day
parade outside of Dublin, Ireland until 2012
when it was downsized.

18. CONTEXT
POPULATION
Chicago's explosive population and area
growth during industrialization has shaped the
city we know today. This growth is due to the
ideal location along Lake Michigan and the
Mississippi River; transportation advances,
including railroads and streetcars, and the
endless work oportunities for the hundreds
of thousands of immigrants in the nineteenth
century.
Before the railroad arrived in Chicago in
1848, the main portion of the city consisted
of farms and mills. In the years to follow,
Chicago grew as a national railroad center;
farmers, industrialists, and commuters all took
advantage of the speed and ease of rail travel.
As a result of the railroad, Chicago became
a major marketplace. New industries and
businesses drew residents from all across the
country into the Chicago metropolitan area.
With the large amount of immigrants migrating
to Chicago, the area expanded outward;
the largest expansion occured in 1890. The
population started to decrease after 1950 due
to people moving out to suburbs, economic
reasons, and families becoming smaller than
they once were in the past.
In the twentith century, Chicago's population
started to see an increase for the first time
since 1950. The population grew from
2,695,598 in 2010 to 2,718,782 in 2013.
This is the first positive economic sign for
Chicago in the modern era.

NEIGHBORHOODS
Chicago is divided into nine different
neighborhoods; Far North Side, Northwest
Side, North Side, West Side, Downtown,
Sout Side, Southwest Side, Far Southwest
Side and Far Southeast Side. There are 77
smaller communities that make up these
nine neighborhoods, each with defining
characteristics.
The Nor th Side is the most densely
populated residential section of the city.
The demogrpahic is considered to be mostly
middle and upper-class.
The Central area is Chicago's central
commerical hub. The area known as the Loop,
contains downtown's commercial, cultural and
financial institutions. This neighborhood is
also home to a high concentration of high-end
retail, skyscrapers, and museums.
The West Side of Chicago is a diverse area
where some neighborhoods have had long-
term economic problems while others,
especially those closer to downtown, are
undergoing gentrification.
The largest section of the city, South Side,
ecompasses roughly 60% of the city's land
area. The South Side has a higher ratio of
single-family homes and also contains the
city's remaining industry. Historically, this area
was home to the stockyards which attracted
the most amounts of immigrants during the
late 19th century. This neighborhood is also
home to Jackson Park and Washington Park.

ARCHITECTURAL LANDMARKS
The architecture of Chicago has influenced
and reflected the history of American
architecture. The city of Chicago, Illinois
features prominent buildings in a variety of
styles by many important architects; since
most buildings within the downtown area were
destroyed by the Great Chicago Fire in 1871.
Chicago buildings are noted for their originality
rather than their antiquity.
Beginning in the early 1880s, architectural
pioneers of the Chicago School explored
steel-frame construction; and in the 1890s,
the use of large areas of plate glass.
Louis Sullivan was perhaps the city's most
philosophical architect. Realizing that the
skyscraper represented a new form of
architecture, he discarded historical precedent
and designed buildings that emphasized their
vertical nature. This new form of architecture,
by Jenney, Burnham, Sullivan, and others,
became known as the "Commercial Style," but
it was later reffered as the "Chicago School" by
historians.
The characterizing architecture envisioned
when referring to Chicago, for the most part, is
concentrated in the downtown area of the city.
Though the South Side is not as populated
by influential architecture, it has sponsored
great projects such as the Illinois Institute of
Technology, University of Chicago, and the
Robie House. The South Side was proposed
for the 2016 Olympic Games host city.
Washington Park would be envisioned as the
Olympic vision, and would ultimately change
the entire community as seen today.

PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION
Chicago is the third most populous city in the
United States, and a major transportation hub.
The city serves two international airports, and
is the main freight rail hub of the midwest.
Mass transit in much of the Chicago
metropolitan area, managed by the Regional
Transportation Authority (RTA), which was
installed by referendum in 1974. The RTA
provides transportation services through the
funding of three subordinate agencies, such
as the Chicago Transit Authority, Metra, and
Pace.
The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA)
operates the nation’s second largest public
transportation system. On an average
weekday, 1.7 million rider use the system. The
CTA is a regional transit system that serves
35 suburbs, in addition to the City of Chicago,
and provides 83% of the public transit trips
in the six-county Chicago metropolitan area;
either with direct service or connecting service
to Metra and Pace. CTA has 1,865 buses that
operate over 128 routes that make up 1,354
miles. Buses make about 19,000 trips a day
and serve 11,104 bus stops. On the rapid
transit system, CTA’s 1,356 rail cars operate
over eight routes on 224.1 miles of track. CTA
trains make about 2,250 trips each day and
serve 146 stations.
Chicago is one of the few cities in the world
that has rail service to two major airports.
CTA’s Blue Line ‘L’ can take riders to O’Hare
International Airport. Orange Line trains, which
operate clockwise on the Loop ‘L’ structure,
19
travel to Midway International Airport. O'Hare
International Airport; which is the busiest
airport in the United States, and the second
busiest airport in the world. It is a major
airport serving numerous domestic and
international destinations. It is a hub for
United Airlines and American Airlines. Midway
International Airport serves mostly domestic
destinations.
Several intercity bus companies offer services
to other cities in Illinois, and across the United
States. Most operate from the Greyhound
Lines terminal, located at 630 West Harrison
Street (corner of Des Plaines Street).
The Northeastern Illinois Regional Commuter
Railroad Corporation, the third service board
within the RTA and operates eleven commuter
rail lines that serve more than 200 stations
across the RTA's six-county service area.
There are eleven lines, three of which also
have service along additional branch lines; in
addition to the main lines, the Metra Electric
District has two branches, and the Rock Island
District and Union Pacific Northwest have one
branch each.
The Metra Electric District is Chicago's oldest
continuing commuter train (1856), shares the
railway with the South Shore Line, operated
by the Northwest Indiana Commuter Transit
District (NICTD). The South Shore Line is an
interurban railroad that operates between
Chicago and South Bend, Indiana. Like the
Metra Electric District, it arrives and departs
from Millennium Station.

GREEN SPACE
Chicago is made up of 8.5% green space,
which ranked thirteenth among high-density
population cities in the United States. Since
the 1830's, Chicago's motto is "Urbs in horto,"
which in Latin stands for "City in a Garden."
Throughout the city, there are 570 different
parks, with Lincoln Park being the largest and
the second most vistied park in the United
States, behind Central Park in New York City.
Notable architects, artists and landscape
architects have contributed to Chicago's

DEMOGRAPHICS
Chicago was one of the world's fastest-
growing cities in the world during its first
hundred years. Founded in 1833, no more
than 200 people had settled in Chicago.
Seven years later after its first census,
the population had reached over 4,000.
Between 1850 and 1890, the population
grew from just under 30,000 to over one
million.
End of the 19th century, Chicago was
the fifth largest city in the world, and the
largest of the cities that did not exist at the
beginning of the century. Within sixty years
of the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, the
population grew from about 300,000 to over
three million. In 1950, Chicago reached its
highest recorded population of 3.6 million
people. During the end of the 19th century,
Chicago became a destination for Italian,
Irish, Jewish, Polish, Lithuanian, Serbs, and
Czech immigrants.
African-Americans from the southern
states of the U.S. later migrated to
Chicagobetween 1910 and 1930, which
doub the black population. Between 1920
and 1930, most of the migrated African-
Americans in Chicago lived in the "Black
Belt" in the South Side. By 1930, two-thirds
of Chicago's African-American population
lived in sections of the city which were 90%
black in racial composition. Chicago's South
Side emerged as America's second largest
urban black concentration. Chicago has a
Hispanic or Latino population of 28.9%.

30. CONTEXT
DENSITY
According to the United States Census
Bureau, Chicago was recorded to have a
density of 11,841 people per square mile in
2010. Most of the more dense communities
are in the North Side, and decreases as
you move to the South Side. As you reach
the lower-class areas, the density is in
the average range because those people
tend to pack themselves into single family
homes. Along the coastline, the density is
higher due to trading and cargo locations.
Downtown Chicago is where more of the
high-class and middle-class people live,
basing their careers in the city, creating a
higher density.
25
32. CONTEXT
CRIME
Starting in the late 1960s, Chicago saw a
major rise in violent crimes. Murders in the
city first peaked in 1974, with 970 murders
when the city's population was over three
million. It peaked again in 1992, with 943
murders when the city had fewer than three
million people.
After 1992, the murder count decreased to
641 murders. The population was at roughly
2,799,000 in 1999, so the decrease was slow,
but still an improvement. In 2002, Chicago
had fewer murders than previous years, but
still a significantly higher murder rate per
capita than both New York or Los Angeles.

CLIMATE
Chicago's climate is recognized as "humid
continental." Each of the four seasons are
distictly represented, such as wet, cool
springs; mildly hot, and mostly humid,
summers; comfortly mild autums; and frigid
winters. The weather is influenced by Lake
Michigan's presence during all four seasons.
The winters fluctuate. There is an average
snowfall of 36 inches, but each storm
generally accumulates about 2 inches.
Tempuratures change wildly between 0°F and
32°F, subzero temperatures are very rare.
Weather Channel ranked Chicago the sixth
coldest major city in the U.S., as of 2014.
Spring is the wettest season for the city.
The city's lakeside location is a center for
developing severe thunderstorms due to the
conflicts of warm and cold air. Tempurates
change wildly between 20°F and 60°F.
Summer days have a high humidity with
temperatures ranging between 78°F and
92°F. Percpitation average change, some
years consist of persistant rainfalls, and other
years are short-lived. Thunderstorms do occur
regularly at night.
Autumn seasons continue the summer's heat.
Tempuratures vary between 40°F and 80°F.
This is the calmer of the four seasons for
Chicago. Severe percipitation is not common,
but there are instances of flooding.

Solar Study
Chicago's solar paths are consistent with
other cities in the northern hemisphere. The
path of the sun changes throughout the year,
due to the tilt of the earth, based on the four
seasons. In the months between November
and March, there are shorter amounts of
sunlight in a day. In the months between April
and October, there are longer amounts of
sunlight during the day.

Wind Study
Chicago is known as the "Windy City," but is
statistically less windy that other cities in the
country. The "Windy City," slogan is thought
to reference the promoting politicians of the
city from the 1800s, Chicago's tourism office
promoting the city's summer destination to
Lake Michigan, or relating to the extreme
winds around the city's high-rise buildings.
The majoity of the winds throughout a year are
coming from the west with average speeds
reaching 40mph. The winter months have
the highest frequency of wind, as well as the
highest averages of wind speeds. The summer
and autumn months have a lower average
of frequencies, as well as the average of
wind speeds. The winter months in Chicago
will have a very high wind chill creating figid
conditions, and the summer months will be
very dry and humid conditions due to the lack
of winds.

PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY
In 1939, President Franklin D. Roosevelt
donated his personal and presidential papers
to the federal government and pledged part
of his estate at Hyde Park to the United
States. Friends of the president then formed
a non-profit corporation to raise funds for the
construction of a library and museum. This
became the first Presidential Library. Roosevelt
felt as though presidential papers were an
important part of the national heritage and
should be accessible by the public. Thus,
Roosevelt asked the National Archives to take
custody of his papers and other historical
materials and to administer his library.
In 1955, Congress passed the Presidential
Libraries Act, which would establish a system
of privately built and federally maintained
libraries. This act would encourage presidents
to donate historical materials to the
government so as to ensure preservation
of the presidential papers, and be made
available to the American people. Through this
act, many libraries have been funded and built
by private, and non-federal, public sources.
Once the libraries were completed, the
private organizations would hand the libraries
over to the National Archives and Records
Administration to operate and maintain.
Many of the original Presidential Libraries
were built in a monumental design, that
best represented funding of the President.
33
Many of the Presidential Libraries were
built in locations relating to a small town or
suburb outside of a city; some are located
near universities, on their own campuses, or
open land. Each library is built in a location
significant to the President, such as the
John F. Kennedy Foundation wanted his
library built in Boston so as to give back to
the city that molden President Kennedy. The
libraries allow all peoples to have access to
their own National Archives and encouraging
the growth of education throughout history.

THE OBAMA FOUNDATION
"Throughout the 20th century, the South Side
struggled with its share of challenges, from
segregation and lack of opportunity, to poverty
and crime. While these problems persist to a
degree, the neighborhood today is on the brink
of rebirth, with its best years still to come."
The idea of having a Presidential Library in the
South Side of Chicago with programs such as
a museum, community gardens, indoor and
outdoor performance spaces, healthy dining,
and "labs" for people of all kinds to show their
talent will help with the goal of revitalizing
the neighborhood; and helping the rebirth of
the region through education, the arts, and
connecting a rich historic area back to what it
once was, or even to become better.
Obama's Presidential Library, like others,
will be used to educate the public of the
governmental and global issues currently
occuring; and soon to be history. Not only
will this library help educate, but it will help
develop a new education for the future.
Developing a connection with the University of
Chicago, a large university with a wide global
outreach, not only is there a chance to help
fix what is locally occuring in the South Side
of Chicago, but the opportunity to influence
world wide. Chicago is the cornerstone of
American architectural history, such a library
can revitalize the South Side with another
monument that has the potential to be
internationally known through the university,
as well as the rich history Washington Park.

SOUTH SIDE
Location: South Side, Chicago, IL, USA
Coordinates: 41.86'71"°N, 87.62'16"°W
Population: 862,469
Area: 30.49 square miles
The South Side of Chicago was originally
defined as all of the city south of the main
branch of the Chicago River, but it now
excludes the Loop. The South Side has
a varied ethnic composition. It has great
disparity in income and other demographic
measures. Although it has a reputation for
being poor or crime-infested, the reality is
more varied. The South Side ranges from
affluent to middle class to working class to
impoverished.
The South Side boasts a broad array of cultural
and social offerings, such as professional
sports teams, landmark buildings, museums,
educational institutions, medical institutions
and major parts of Chicago's parks system.

DEMOGRAPHICS
In 1840, Irish, Italian, Polish, Lithuanian, and
Yugoslav immigrants began to immigrate to
the South Side until the end of World War II.
Starting in 1862, the Civil War freed black
southeners, migrating to the northern states
in search of freedom. The black population
nearly quadrupled from 4,000 to 15,000
in Chicago. By 1910, the black population
in the South Side reached around 40,000.
About 78% of the black population was
located in the "Black Belt." Housing
pressures and civic unrest caused other
ethnic groups, mostly Europeans, to move
out to the city's edges and into the suburbs.
The Great Migration was the result of new
employment opportunities in northern
industry drawing in much of the southern
black population.
By the middle of the century, economic
conditions began to change. The industrial
restructuring in meat packaging and the
steel industry cost many jobs in the South
Side. Additionally, the civil rights movement
allowed educated African-Americans, who
obtained middle-class jobs, to move out of
the South Side. The South Side's population
dropped, businesses and cultural amenities
left, and concentrations of poor families
were left. After the 2010 census, the South
Side was made up 97% of blacks.
In the Hyde park area, there is a lot of
diversity in race because of the University of
Chicago, library, and museum.

52. SITE ANALYSIS
DENSITY
South Side covers about 60% of Chicago's
land area, making it the largest area in the
city. The density of the South Side is similar
throughout the neighborhood. The South
Shore communities of Kenwood and Hyde
Park are the most dense because there are
more civil buildings and college campuses
in the area; such as the University of
Chicago, Museum of Science and Industry,
and Washington Park, These places
bringing people to live close to this area.
As you travel south, the density decreases
slightly. People start to pack themselves
into houses because of their low-income.
According to the Statistical Atlas website,
there are three South Side communities
in Chicago's top twenty-five densest
communities; at 17th is South Shore at
17,600 people per square mile, at 18th is
Kenwood at 17,100 people per square mile,
and at 21st is Hyde Park at 16,300 people
per square mile.

CRIME
Over the last half a century, Chicago has
gained national attention for it's high gun
violence and violent crimes. However,
Chicago's crime has never been distributed
evenly across the city, and the decline hasn't
been either. In and around downtown, and on
the North Side, neighborhoods with moderate
numbers of homicides became some of the
safest urban areas in the country.
The rest of Chicago has seen much more
moderate declines. More recently, for two
police districts on the South Side, the
homicide problem has actually gotten worse.

POVERTY
As a nation, the middle class has been
gradually disappearing. As the majority of
wealth gains are going to the top richest
American's, the lower class are becoming
more and more poor.
In the Chicago metropolitan area, the North
Side neighborhood along the shore of Lake
Michigan are comparatively affluent, while the
South Side neighborhood are less with lower
median incomes and a lower cost of living.
Although there have been many attempts
to revitalize the area, it remains inhabited
primarily by poor minorities. A study by the
Chicago Coalition for the Homeless shows that
one third of children in Chicago are living in
poverty; 50% of them being black, 34% Latino,
and 13% being white. However, there is a
major exception to this, Chicago's West Side
is the poorest section of the city, but it does
contain many affluent areas.
When looking at the city over a period of about
40 years, there is a rapid change in income
level and the near erasure of the middle class
in Chicago.
Specifically looking at the South Side, there
has always been a predominately poor area.
However, the amount of people who are close
to the edge of poverty has grown dramatically
over time. With that shift results in a steady
increase in the upper class as well. The
inreased density of upper class residents
begins to push out the middle class residents
and creates pockets of wealth in poverty in the
area.

TYPOLOGY
The basic geometry of the buildings in the
area are three shapes; rectangular, L-shape
and U- shape. Due to the large percent of
residential building in the area, most of
building are rectangular.
The rectangular shape can be categorized
into different styles, such as a bungalow,
two-flat frame, worker cottage, or a Chicago
greystone building, The L-shape buildings are
generally multi-family homes, or academics
building, such as the University of Chicago.
Most of U-shape buildings are aparments with
a courtyard.
Due to the large number of residential
buildings, the spacing between building
are narrow to use the land more efficiently
to develop as much residential space as
possible. The larger buildings are typically
institutional, eithor for the university, or a civic
use. These buildings will usually take up a
whole block.

1. University of Chicago
The University of Chicago is the closest
university to the designated site. Just over
a mile away lies 14,467 students striving
for excellence. The university is the main
seperator between the site and the waterfront.
By having the university so close to the site,
there is an opportunity to work with the
university to develop a program that both the
public and the students can make use. Also,
there is a great diversity and world presence
on the campus that allows for a large influence
over international affairs.
2. Illinois Institute of Technology
North of the site, seperating the site from the
downtown is 7,792 students at the Illinois
Institute of Technology. With a large influence
of architecture and an architectural program,
references to such may influence the overall
design on the site near Washington Park.
Having a second large university with an
enormous history in architecture world wide,
gives opportunity to the site with revitalizing
the South Side in a way that can connect the
universities and the surrounding public.

The chart above represents the vast diversity on the
University of Chicago campus. Of 14,467 students, less
than half are white. Over half belong to many different
countries. By having such a diverse population on the
campus, it creates a melting pot effect in the area of South
Chicago. Such an effect can really manipulate how the area
revitalizes itself due to the different cultural influences.
The chart above represents the percentage of the students
represented by their country of origin. From the diverse
group, 47% of the international students at University of
Chicago come from the Pacific. By having so many different
cultures in one area around the university can be important
to the project later in the design process, as well as bring
forth international affairs.
The chart above displays a sense of the diversity in the
surrounding area, and the people who live there that do not
pertain to the large universities. Understanding who lives
here can also influence a design. For example, there can
be exhibits or public spaces created specificly for the South
Side community that may not pertain to the large university
population. By doing so, may inspire the local patrons to
grow and improve the area in ways never thought of before.

1. University of Chicago Library
The university has many libraries that pertain
to the different schools and majors located
around the campus. However, there is a main
library on campus known as the University of
Chicago Library. This library is only open for
those who attend the school. The public can
not obtain any books from this library. With
that being said, this library is specificly for the
educational purposes of the students.
2. Bessie Coleman Library
The Bessie Coleman Library is part of the
Chicago Public Library system. Being a part
of the Chicago Public Library system, anyone
in the area of the Bessie Coleman Library will
have access to any library book throughout
Chicago, simply through a request. The ability
to branch out to other Chicago Public Libraries
breaks the limitations one might have at a
single, privately owned library.
3. Chicago Public Library
The Chicago Public Libraries are a series of
libraries throughout the city of Chicago that
are non-profit and are accessable to the
public. The main goals of these libraries are
to "provide access for all, nuture learning,
to support economic advancement, to
strengthen communities, and to serving
patrons effectively." For example, if one library
does not have a book that someone wants,
and another Chicago Public Library does, then
the book may be transfered and then offered
to the person who wanted the book. The
Chicago Public Libraries schedule events and
small classes to help educate the public in
more ways than just reading. They have events
such as Bookamania, CyberNavigators, One
Book, One Chicago, ScienceConnections,
Summer Learning Challenge, Teacher in the
Library, and YOUmedia. These events can all
be found throughout the 80 lovations of these
libraries.

The public schools in Chicago are in constant
war trying to get their students off the streets,
and in the classrooms to better themselves.
The mission for this community based school
system is to graduate as many students
as possible, so that they will be eligible for
collage. Getting young kids, mainly young
black kids, an education is key to them making
a change for the city and their neighborhoods.
Schools of Chicago want to create effective
leaders, supportive environments, involve
families, have collaborative teachers, and give
ambitious instructions.
1. Jesse Sherwood Elementary
The school has created a partnership with
Communities in Schools and has the Century
21 Learning Grant. They have the rich before
and after school programs, not only for
children, but for parents as well. On a monthly
basis, parents receive an opportunity to come
together to discuss various topics that will
enhance student achievement.
2.Hales Franciscan High School
The school has celebrated African-American
heritage and endeavored to instill cultural
pride. Today, the school continues to be the
only historically African-American, all-male,
Catholic, college preparatory high school in
the state of Illinois and one of three such
institutions in the nation.

YOUTH CENTERS
Goal of South Side Youth Programs:
Many, if not all, youth programs on the South
Side have a mission to help the youth in the
community out of danger, and lead them
on the path to college and a career. These
programs are working with public schools
in the area and other organizations to team
up and get the kids involved. The YMCA of
Chicago has a process of getting kids from
Risk to Leadership that many other programs
follow. Along with teaching and achieving
these youth centers help kids and families in
need of shelter, there is medical assistance
and counseling. The South Side has many
helpful organizations.
1. Gary Comer Youth Center
The Gary Comer Youth Center aims to
provide support for students to graduate
from high school, prepared to pursue college
and careers. It provides kids with positive
extracurricular education in a welcoming and
safe environment. The youth center providies
primary membership to the surrounding
neighborhood and throughout the South Side.
2. Chicago Youth Programs
The Chicago Youth Programs goal is to improve
the health and life opportunities of at-risk
youth using a comprehensive approach aimed
at developing their capabilities. This program
runs over eight specific youth programs
throughout the city of Chicago along working
along side many South Side Public Schools.

72. SITE ANALYSIS
PARKS
South Side Parks:
Majority of South Side's parks in Chicago
around the Hyde Park and Washington Park
neighborhoods are part of Fredrick Law
Olmsted's park master plan he designed for
the World's Fair of 1893. The main features
of the World's Fair was Jackson Park, Midway
Plaisance Park, and Washington Park. But,
the plan included the parks along Lake
Michigan and prominate parks near Chicago's
downtown. Other parks that were not part of
Olmsted's master plan was the cemetary park
and garden planning.
1. Jackson Park
This park is known as the site of the 1893
World's Fair designed by Frederick Law
Olmsted. Currently still housing known
architectural icons and scuplted landscapes,
Jackson Park draws many tourists and visitors
from around the world. Adjacent to the
park is Lake Michigan, which attracts many
beachgoers during the summer seasons.
Due to the steady decline in the surrounding
neighborhood, the lagoons and Jackson
Park have deteriorated. The City of Chicago
is making many efforts to revitalize the park
and its surrounding areas.

2. Midway Plaisance Park
Midway Plaisance Park is the connecting
greenway between Jackson Park and
Washington Park. As part of the World's Fair
Exposition in 1893, the Midway attacked like
the fair's concession stand and amusement
attractions.
Today, the Midway has remained essentially
a green area, a public resource subject to
much speculation, and various sparatic plans
of redevelopment. Currently it houses an ice
skating rink, soccer fields and more.
3. Washington Park
Washington Park is listed on the list of
National Register of Historic Places. The
park houses fifteen buildings, twenty-eight
structures, and eight objects to create a
multipurpose park. Washington Park is a
social center of the South Side and hosts
many festivals in the summer. The park is
home to many sports, ranging from cricket,
to softball or baseball, basketball, and many
more.
The City of Chicago announced for the 2016
Olympic Bid back in 2008 and 2009 but lost
to the chosen Rio De Janeiro. In the bid, the
city was planning to build a $400 million
stadium to house 80,000 spectators; as well
as revamp the surrounding areas. The plan
faced rejection from people to maintain its
historical marking and from the choosing of
Rio De Janeiro. The plans for Washington
Park were put on hold until a later date.
76. CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
URBAN STRATEGY
71
What is the connection back to the "hub" of
the city to help the South Side neighborhood
to be seen on the same level as the other
neighborhoods in Chicago?
Using the Obama Presidential Library as the
anchor, the South Side will be on the same
platform as the rest of the city. Obama is
seen as the presidential leader for "Hope
and Change," and he wants to return to the
neighborhood that inspired and molded him
before his presidency and have his ibrary
provide a symbol for that message of "Hope
and Change" for the people of the Side
South and other neighborhoods like that.
The elevated train system is that physical
connection to the "hun," and is one of the
iconic pieces of Chicago. This neighborhood,
and this library can inspire the people to see
the "Hope and Change" in their own lives by
providing a building with a relation to the
iconic part of the connection to the "hub" of
Chicago.
77. 72
How will the design not be so modern that it is
distant from the historic elements?
Part of the purpose of the Obama Presidential
Library is to provide inspiration to the South
Side of Chicago. The neighborhood is seen as
one of the worst in the country; it can be seen
as a reflection back to Munich, Germany after
World War II. Munich had to be completely
rebuilt from the destruction of the war, and
the new architecture for the buildings and
landscapes were created so that the German
people would be comfortable that their history
and heritage was preserved. The Neues
Rathaus (New Town Hall) was the beacon
of inspiration to the city to have "Hope and
Change," and was positive that their heritage
will be preserved as they move in a positive
direction.
78. IMAGINING SPACES
73
The exterior is to be open to the public and
allow all the various elements to enter. Not
only the pwoplw, but also allowing nature to
venture ibnto the building by developing 'with'
the landscape.
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
79. 74
The interior will have picturesque views to
numerous points of Chicago to display the
diversity in the city that had molded Obama to
become president.
80. Understanding the context, site, and physical
appearence this building will have, I started to
look at different aspects in the design.
During my reaserch, there have been many
protests and arguments to not allow the
Presidential Center to distrubt the nature of
the park. So I chose to stay away from the
park, which mean green space is an important
feature, as to create a relationship to the
neighboring Washington Park to the east.
Having a gathering space seems to be a
traditional element with civic infustructures.
This gathering space will allow for interactions
within the general public.
Also, looking at the axis around and in the
site, current and newly developed. The current
connection between the train station and
the park is a very bold axis that cuts the site
in half. The street corner of East Garfield
Boulavard and South Martin Luther King Drive
seemed like a interesting anchor point. With
the high volumn of vehicular and pedestrian
traffic along the boulavard, that street corner
is a good place to draw in people to the center.
Attraction is a key feature. An overhanging
structure will define a space and an entrance.
I first examined ways to have an overhang
element to help impliment the unique space
and attraction.
PROCESS + MODELS
75
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
82. PROGRAM
By organizing the different elements into
similar groups allowed for closer relationships.
Core
This is the heart of the building. The other
three other groups begin and end from the
core. This is made up of the entrance hall,
cafe, and the gift shop.
Information
These elements are ment to provide
information, education, counciling, and youth
programs. The library and achives will allow
the public to access to information relating to
Obama's presidency. The educational facilities
and public programming are ment to develop
programs to help serve the yourh and adults
in the community.
Exhibition
The two exhibition spaces are part of the
key elements of the center. The permanent
space is focused primarily on artifaction and
displays relating to Obama's presidency. The
temporary space will be constantly changing
with different exhibits. The preservation and
direction for the exhibition spaces will be
organized by the administration of the center.
Independent
These elements have the ability to operate
without any connection the exhibits or the
library. Such as the auditorum, music and
other performances can utilize the stage
during the evenings. The restaurant can
operate in a similar manner.

84. SITE RELATIONSHIP
The Presidential Center is situated towards the
center of the site boundary. Its location is in a
neutral position between the train station and
Washington Park, so its not to over power or
underwhelm one or the other. It is positioned
to be intercepted with the axis the run through
the site; the train and park connection, and
the street corner. Lastly, the views that are
shown are to show the diversity of the city.

104. STRUCTURE
The structure needed to be light and have
the ability to be movable. Steel construction
allowed for that to help the overall design.
Which the two different directions of
the design, the steel created a simple
collaboration between the two directions.
Also, with the large overhanging component
on the south side, on the upper two levels, the
structure needed to be able to account for the
over-hang. Using ventricular beams on the roof
plans helped account for the mass to be held
in tension.

106. MECHANICAL CONCEPT
Due to the psychrometric chart analysis of
Chicago and my design, the VAV system was
the logical choice for the mechanical system.
There are different types of spaces in the
design, such as an office, a small open space,
and a large open space. the offices have a
proportinal window, meanwhile, the large
space have curtain wall glass that encompass
the whole room. The psychrometric charts
explained that harshness between the warm
and cold seasons, which means the larger
spaces with the curtain wall glass will probably
need to be controlled by the mechanical
system at all times to help regulate the space.
Due to the different type of spaces, the
VAV system allowed for the mechanical
components to be controlled on separate
systems. the smaller offices won't need as
much heat in the winter compared to the large
exhibit spaces. The VAV system helps control
each space independently, which will create a
comfortable level in each space in the center.

110. BUILDING ENVELOPE CONCEPT
The materiality helped to explore the
expression of natural light. I wanted to see the
effects natural light has on the interior of a
building. To see this eploration vividly, I have
chosen the two extreme types of materials,
glass and concrete.
Not only is the concrete to help with the
exploration, but it sends a message to the
community. The mass of the material displays
perminance and durability. The message to
the South Side region is that this Presidential
Center won't be moved, and it can withstand
the tough moments. The glass will then
showcase the good moments. the views
depicted of theneighborhood will show the
beauty it has to offer.
