Cubs planning to move forward with Wrigley Field renovations
In a letter and video sent to Cubs fans on Wednesday, chairman Tom Ricketts
said the team is ready to move forward with proposed renovations to
Wrigley Field. Here is the video:
Ricketts says a revised expansion plan will be submitted to the Commission on
Chicago Landmarks seeking approval for the addition of several signs and a new
seating configuration in the outfield. If approved, the team is prepared to
begin construction immediately.
Here are the highlights of the revised renovation plan, courtesy of MLB.com's
Carrie Muskat:
The new outfield signs will provide an additional revenue source to help fund
other parts of the restoration, Ricketts said. The revised expansion plan will
include additional seating and open spaces in the Budweiser Bleachers,
including new group terraces in right and left field and enclosed hospitality
areas. They are also asking for new outfield lights that will reduce shadows,
allowing fly balls to be lit from both front and back. All lighting will be
directed inside the ballpark and not outside to the community.
Also, four additional LED signs of up to 650 square feet, and one additional
2,400-square foot videoboard in right field will be added to the ballpark.
Both the home and visitor's clubhouses will be expanded as part of the
renovations, and the bullpens would be moved off the field to an area under the
Budweiser Bleachers.
"We can't delay any longer. The time to build a winner is now," Ricketts said
in the video.
"I'm not saying Wrigley Field is the reason the Chicago
Cubs haven't won a world championship in more than 100 years, but I am
saying it's time to invest in Wrigley Field and to do the things our
competitors do."
A proposed video scoreboard in left field will be reduced in size, though the
Wrigleyville Rooftop Association has made it clear it plans to sue to prevent
the scoreboard from being built because it will obstruct views.
"We've spent endless hours negotiating with the rooftop businesses," Ricketts
added. "We've gotten nowhere in our talks with them to settle this dispute. It
has to end. It's time to move forward."
The Chicago City Council and the Commission on Chicago Landmarks approved the
team's $500 million renovation plan in 2013. That proposal included a larger
video scoreboard. Other approved elements include an open-air plaza outside
Wrigley, a 175-room hotel in partnership with Starwood, a 40,000-square-foot
Chicago Athletic Club, a restoration of the ballpark's facade and improved
amenities.
The proposed renovation will be privately financed. Wrigley Field celebrated
its 100th anniversary earlier this year and is the second-oldest ballpark in
Major League Baseball.

小熊隊打者竟然只能在休息室做打擊練習 練打還要把簾子拉下來保護電視...
實在是Wrigley Field的室內空間太過狹小又沒辦法擴建
雖然Tom Ricketts不斷強調說說他不會把小熊超過100年無法奪冠的原因歸咎於球場XD
小熊球團對於Wrigley Field的狹小的室內練習和休息空間以及場外不能大量設置看板
已經感冒很久了(會妨礙到那些屋頂座位的景觀 所以那些住戶不爽不給用)
一直對芝加哥市議會和政府遊說想擴建球場的計畫 好不容易芝加哥市政府通過
小熊球團的擴建提案 那些屋頂住戶卻不爽要告小熊球團 杯葛不讓提案通過
雖然小熊球團已經和屋頂住戶協調很久了 不過好像還沒有結果
所以小熊總裁Tom Ricketts只好在網路上發起聯署 動之以情 希望通過擴建案
才能讓他有更多的廣告贊助 有錢持續投資小熊隊才能讓小熊隊早日奪冠。
