Tom Ricketts, owner of the Chicago Cubs, today purchased three more Sheffield Rooftop businesses bringing his total to six that line that street; he also has a financial interest in a seventh. He now fully owns all but three Wrigleyville Rooftop businesses along Sheffield. The day to day operations of all six of his rooftops will be run by George Loukas who owns the popular bar across the street from Wrigley Field known as the Cubby Bear.
Slowly but surely the Cubs and Ricketts are purchasing up the rooftops to expand their reach. I have no doubt that their ultimate plan is to purchase all of the rooftop businesses to completely corner the market on their own business.
