Cubs president of business operations Crane Kenney told 670 The Score last week that the team was planning to host fans at Wrigley Field this season and vowed that the rooftops would be open for business. While mayor Lori Lightfoot took exception to the Cubs jumping the gun a little bit after what Kenney said had been productive talks with her office, it does appear as though progress has been made.
According to a report from WGN’s Josh Frydman, the city has granted approval for Wrigleyville rooftops to operate at 25% capacity, which is higher than allowed by Phase 4 of the Restore Illinois proposal.
