Last update: an hour ago

Obama Presidential Center Visit Guide: The Obama Presidential Center opens June 19 in Chicago’s Jackson Park (6001 S. Stony Island Ave.), with daily grounds hours 6 a.m.–9 p.m. and highlights like the Obama Presidential Museum, The Forum, a new Chicago Public Library branch, John Lewis Plaza, and the Eleanor Roosevelt Fruit & Vegetable Garden—here’s how to get there by CTA, Metra, bike, taxi, and rideshare. World Cup Travel Friction: As the 2026 FIFA World Cup nears, multiple teams and even match officials report visa denials, long interrogations, and denied entry—raising fresh concerns for travelers heading to U.S. host cities.

Clinton St., with the Scott Street Parking Deck exit staying open.

Special Olympics Torch Run: Edwardsville police joined the Illinois Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics, carrying the torch from Montclaire Shopping Center to Busey Bank. Sustainable Aviation Fuel at O’Hare: American Airlines and Google announced a sustainable aviation fuel certificate deal supporting 35 million gallons over three years, delivered to Chicago O’Hare.
