Wrigley Field

Wrigley Field is a historic ballpark on Chicago's North Side, home of the Chicago Cubs. It opened in 1914 as Weeghman Park and later became Cubs Park before being named Wrigley Field in 1927. It is the oldest park in the National League and second-oldest in MLB after Fenway Park. The stadium was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2020. Visitors can experience the iconic ivy-covered brick outfield wall, the red marquee over the main entrance, and the hand-turned scoreboard. The stadium is set in a residential neighborhood, offering views from nearby rooftops. It was the last MLB park to install lights for night games, which happened in 1988. The playing field sits at an elevation of 600 feet above sea level.
