About this event
Chicago Studies and its many partners make it easy to explore the city—and understand it better. Students from Chicago Studies’ Chicago Urban Heritage Project will lead a walking tour delving into the past, present, and future of Woodlawn, home to UChicago’s South Campus and the new Obama Presidential Center. Learn what student research—examining historic maps and decades of community archives—reveals about this neighborhood’s proud heritage and dynamic future. Please arrive by 11:15 a.m. to receive audio aids and make introductions. This tour involves about two miles of walking with regular stops.
