Where’s the gold? It definitly needs gold!🤡

What it represents: “The design of the Obama Presidential Center represents a movement upward from the grassroots, symbolizing collective civic engagement and the idea that many hands shape a place. It aims to honor history while inspiring future generations to create their own stories.” Claycorp

I drove by on May 19th and there was still a lot of work being done on the grounds. So glad they got it finished in record time. That building looks amazing up close!

The shot from below is stunning

Very cool. Very contemporary. Very President Obama!❤️

Ohhh okay seeing the giant text window from the corner made more senss

Thank you Obama.

It’s beautiful

Felon will be drooling…..

❤️👍

Does it include the parts where he expanded executive power for its own sake? Or where his administration punished journalists, after promising transparency? Or the part where he punished no one for destroying the economy? Maybe there's just a general "he let us all down" reflection spot

Ok, the return of Brutalism. Softened a tad. Guess in Chicago, with fires, tornadoes, gangs, ice storms, you need a fortress.

Trump is going to be so JEALOUS!😁 He'll really be SH*TTING himself tonight!

The next Presidential Centre will be make of black stone, be unisex and smell of piss…..

Very cool!!

Come see all the wars Obama started in Libya 2011, Syria 2012, Ukraine coup in 2014, Yemen 2015. He continued Bush's wars. He gave us warmongers Hillary, Genociders Joe & Kamala, he's responsible for Trump getting elected twice because Democrats refused to help Americans & work for the rich also.

It looks like a tomb.

Beautiful, love the landscape - BUT I wish the walking paths werent white. It's harmful to sensitive eyes - and before you come at me, sunglasses don't work at all angles. A light grey would have been a safer color.

That complex looks absolutely stunning, classy and a real tribute to the man and his wife who earned every square inch of it.

It looks really out of place with all the parks.

Nice!

Beautiful.

trumps library

It looks like a bunker

But it's more than just the building, it's all of that land around it and the complexes surrounding that were built for interaction.....families and for anyone at all to enjoy equally. Everyone hated the pyramid at the Louvre, and now people travel the world just to see it

What’s on the outside has little impact on the treasure within. Just like people.

An “Unsculpted” Brutalist slab? Yeah, not my thing either.

Saying "I'm pro-Obama but" before calling the building ugly ain't the compliment you think it is.

I'm not the biggest fan of the design, but some aspects of it still look neat. I think the photo itself does it some justice.

I’ll say it with you. It’s definitely ugly.

Just looks like a concrete dumpster

Perhaps the trump arch is more your speed.

agreed, looks awful and the text on it is absurd

But why do you display a Tesla Cybertruck here

Agree. I bet it will be cool in person, up close. Who would have thought?

utinni!

Convenient how the Star Wars impression hits different when it's Obama's name on the door.

Minus jawas.

😳😹

“Start Wars” should be a permanent exhibition in the Trump Presidential Library.

Because you're color blind?

I think it is spectacular. But to each his own.

Beautiful

It is stunning.

This is one presidential library I will visit 👏🏻

Soon to be rebranded as the Trump Presidential Center.

Can't wait!

What???... No gold? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂

Stunning! Cait to visit the Obama Center and Chicago. LOVE that city

That is an interesting shape....

Waiting for the Orange Menace to try to rename this to the Donald J. Trump-Obama Presidential Center.

Looks amazing. What a fantastic building and surroundings leading up to it. Sadly I’ll never ever return to visit US again. Thanks for sharing, these timelines need some beautiful architecture from US.

Beautiful campus. I was there last week!!!

It’s beautiful

What, no faux-gold plating? Lol! Beautiful. I saw it about a year ago while still under construction.

Stunning and so fitting.

Compare that building and its beautiful grounds to the junkyard Trump has made of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Has the orange one got his sights on this!

I really appreciate that it's not a monument to Obamas, not gaudy, not gilded, not face plastered everywhere. Very classy 🙏👏👏👏👏🤩 Thank you Obamas

Absolutely gorgeous!

'Not enough gold, needs a reflecting pool and an arch!'

Incredible architecture ❗️

It really looks incredible. What an experience . ☀️

My company did all of the AV for the exhibits - the projectors, displays, speakers, computers, etc. It’s been such a great project to work on. Truly one of the best clients I’ve ever had. My crew just loaded out last week and it was very bittersweet.

I want to go see it.

Damn thats ugly

Beautiful 🎉🎊🎉🎊

This is a spectacular building for a great President!

tRump’s is already up and running……,,so there 😉🤣🤣.

Can’t wait to visit!

Looks like it would make a great college campus. Or a community college. Hope it hosts lots of educational classes and events.

Well maybe it fits the evil world dominating couple? It was a passion project of Bruce Willis and he seems artsy, maybe he liked the look!

Thanks, Minerva

Absolute stunner. It was inspiring, watching it go up…esp when the stained glass was installed.

Nice grounds, wrong structure. They just don't go together. Yes, I know that's sacrilegious, but it's true.

trump will probably want to put his name on it.

Sleepy Don is not invited 🤣🤣🤣

Seriously? How does Obama have any control over state and city police departments acting like racist thugs?

🤜🤛

Obamalisk

It appears to reflect its namesake. Shaped by our very best intentions & capacities as humans.

That's a stunning shot! The sunset adds a sense of hope and renewal to the campus. What drew you to this particular spot for your photo?

wtf is that? Looks ridiculous.

Unpopular opinion: this is really unappealing and ugly. 😶

Don’t tell Trump anything about this or we’ll have to add “Trump,” to the name.

It's unique, but it's really ugly

Looks amazing! I love crazy golf!

Sad that it's such a hideous building.

Just make sure that PEDO prez doesn't smear his 🍊name like he did with the Kennedy center. 🤬 I will visit when America's free of maggots, & their rotting 🍊 PEDO prez. 🇨🇦

The Obama-lisk

That's right! I knew I may have been mistaken. Thanks!

Wow, gorgeous.

I sincerely hope the center is well protected, as we know the Trump imbeciles are out there ready to do his bidding.

Look for hundreds of "truths" from the demented felon...

This was it before it landed and settled.

How long before chump tries to put his name on this too?

Beautiful

Watch out for accidental bombing by the department of war!

I love this for us!

Imagine if he had tried to put up this kind of structure WHILE president, ON the side of the WH, saying it had snipers and drones on the top of it.

That fiery sunset truly crowns a masterpiece! 🌅 The warm glow from within feels like a beacon of hope and inspiration, ready to welcome the world. Capturing this historic moment so beautifully is absolutely breath-taking! 🏛️✨

Right? I think it’ll have a different effect in person than in the photos too. ✌🏼

That’s really cool now you have compelled me to want to go online and look at the tourist information about it😅💯 I mean, I could never step foot in America with what’s going on, but I’d still like to know more about the building and the grounds

Family friendly. Beacon of Hope.
