January Love Letter
Local tourism execs are getting a lot of mileage from the recent Barack Obama victory, and rightfully so. The former Illinois senator is the first President-Elect to rise from Chicago, and this month he leaves his Georgian revival home in the South Side’s Hyde Park neighborhood, and makes the official move to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
Think you can trace the footsteps Obama made while carving his political career? To quote the man himself, “Yes, you can.”
The Illinois Bureau of Tourism just introduced the President-Elect Obama Trail, a travel itinerary hitting all the haunts of our incoming 44th president. Highlights range from the obvious (Grant Park, where on November 5 he gave his victory speech to more than a million supporters) to the under-publicized (University of Chicago Law School, where he taught constitutional law from 1992 to 2004).
Check out the entire tour online ( enjoyillinois.com). If you’re a real history buff, the Lincoln, Ulysses S. Grant, and Ronald Reagan tours (all former Presidents who lived in Illinois) might also catch your eye.
