Wrigley landmarked

The endless bickering over the landmarking of Wrigley Field ended quietly yesterday, as the Chicago City Council's landmarks committee voted unanimously to landmark elements of the home of the Chicago Cubs, while allowing for minor expansions of the 90-year-old structure. While the landmarks designation would allow for expansion of Wrigley's bleachers, that seems less likely now that the Cubs agreed to take a share of profits from rooftop seat owners in exchange for not building a view-blocking bleacher addition.
