00:00Hey, everybody.
00:01I am here at the Obama Presidential Center.
00:04It is starting to happen.
00:10The landscaping is starting to come in.
00:14The athletic center is basically done.
00:19And then there's just some amazing views and some amazing art,
00:22because art and culture is part of how we build communities
00:25and how we bring about change.
00:26Each place is part of my life.
00:31I could not be more excited because I know people here on the south side of Chicago
00:36and visitors from all around the world are going to be able to use this space in an active way.
00:41You guys keep doing what you're doing.
00:43Don't lock me and mess you up.
00:45It looks great, guys. You're all doing good.
00:48If you ask me what my favorite spots are,
00:50I have to say that the Sky Room at the top of the tower
00:54gives you one of the best views of Chicago that you will have ever seen.
00:57But I've got to say this reading room, I think I'm going to be spending some time in here,
01:02so maybe we'll end up reading a book together,
01:04and we'll have to whisper because librarians are very strict.
01:09All right. Look forward to you guys visiting.
01:11Thanks Mak.
01:12We're going to be opening next year.
01:13Thank you.
