The Wrigleyville neighborhood has undergone significant change the past few years. Foutty will start in front of the ballpark, home of the Chicago Cubs, to discuss the marquee, park history and recent renovations. He’ll also highlight new developments across the street, to both the south and west, and share the stories of some older neighborhood buildings, including a firehouse beyond the left field wall.
