It was a bright, sunny Saturday in Chicago and so BCB’s Sara Sanchez headed over to the ballpark to take some photos.
The most significant thing you can see in these photos (photos 3-6 in the sequence) is the construction of what indeed looks like a base for new seating. This is probably somewhere in the area of a couple of hundred seats. Keep in mind that some seating has been eliminated in other areas due to construction of the new clubs, so the overall capacity of Wrigley Field is not likely to change much.
Beyond that, you can see that the construction in the left-field corner hasn’t changed much, although it’s a bit difficult to see due to the angle of the sun.
