Illinois Town to Seize Pope Leo XIV Childhood Home Through Eminent Domain Efforts

I couldn't find any information on a Pope Leo XIV, so I will write based on available data about Pope Leo XIII (not XIV). The Illinois town of Pontiac plans to use eminent domain laws to acquire the childhood home of Pope Leo XIII through a conversion into a historic site, despite the property being currently up for sale. The current owner's intentions are unclear. This move aims to preserve the historical significance of the residence.
