Dane Placko reports.An "act of hate" was discovered Thursday at the worksite of the Obama Presidential Center onNow, the construction company building the presidential center is offering a $100,000 reward to help find whoever is responsible for hanging a noose at the project site.
Lakeside Alliance says they have suspended "all operations onsite in order to provide another series of these trainings and conversations for all staff and workers.""This shameless act of cowardice and hate is designed to get attention and divide us. Our priority is protecting the health and safety of our workforce. We have notified authorities who are investigating the incident.
The $850 million presidential center is expected to open sometime in late 2025 and draw about 700,000 people a year to the site.

The center is near the University of Chicago where Obama taught law and where the Obamas got married and raised their two daughters.
