I was talking with a co-worker of mine about it who's born and raised in the Bronx. Apparently here in NYC there's a similar thing where there might be a casino put somewhere in the city (I had no idea). One of the concerns is putting it in a neighborhood where the average resident doesn't really have a lot of money - at least according to him. That sort of thing to people in maybe less than ideal neighborhoods economically might be seen as sort of an attack.

The more I think about it, the more I'm pretty solid that Chicago should put it in or near downtown. See if you can make a "program" to hire from some of those areas, but putting it in some of those areas might not exactly be the best thing to do and many residents might actually see it that way.
