1060 Project Construction Update: While Cubs Play in Desert, Wrigley Filled with Dirt
Because they say plenty all on their own, I’m going to let these pictures stand without much commentary. I will say, however, that it’s crazy to think what we’re seeing below will be a fully-functioning ballpark in just over a month.

As for the exterior, the changes are quite evident. The pictures below reveal that the new office building is almost completed and you also get a look at the new western gate adjacent to the plaza. It’s hard to get much perspective, but those concrete pillars are the beginnings of Hotel Zachary, which stands across the street from Wrigley.
