An Iraqi billionaire, previously barred from entering the United States, has been attempting for two decades to develop a 62-acre site he owns south of the Loop in Chicago. This site, known as The 78 and connected to Related Midwest, is now the focus of a proposed plan by White Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf to build a new baseball stadium. The plan has garnered attention due to the billionaire's involvement and the team's pursuit of public funding for the stadium.
