Hyde Park’s Must-See Sights is going to the house that President Obama lived in at 5046 S. Greenwood Ave. After seeing the house, drive a few few blocks South and East and "go into" the Hyde Park Hair Salon to see where Zariff, President Obama’s trusted barber of over 20 years, works his magic. Also, they have cool photo of Muhammad Ali on the wall!!!
