Wrigley Construction Update: Barren Field Filled with Equipment, Cubs Say Renovations Ahead of Schedule

Wrigley Field’s interior is still littered with heavy equipment, there’s no grass in place, and the seating and dugout areas are still incomplete. But don’t let that fool you into thinking the renovations are running behind or that there’ll be any issues with having the place fixed up in time for Opening Day.

“I’m here to remind everybody that we’re on track and, in fact, a couple days ahead of schedule for our plan for Opening Day,” Cubs president of business operations Crane Kenney said Thursday.

According to Kenney, the work they’ve performed this offseason is the most extensive and expensive of the ongoing 1060 Project, and boy does it show.
