Renderings give first look at Obama Presidential Center's athletic facility

CHICAGO (CBS) -- A preview of the Obama Presidential Center's athletic facility was released Thursday.

The future athletic center, dubbed "The Home Court," will include a basketball facility tucked away on the southwest corner of Jackson Park.

The Obama Foundation says it'll be the largest gathering space on the nearly 20-acre campus.

Construction for the facility is underway.

The athletic facility will be the first space to open in late 2025.
