The site boundary is between 31st street and E. Pershing Road and between Martin Luther King Drive and La Sall Street. This is Black Metropolian area Which has a lot of Chicago Landmarks. However, almost of the landmarks cannot attract tourists because the area is the most high crime area in Chicago. Many landmarks are abondoned with tremendous number of vacant lots.
