Chicago Cubs: Street closure proposal met with anger
Don’t look now, the big bad bullies are at it again. The Chicago Cubs may have finally crossed the line in their continuous negotiations with the city and the Wrigleyville neighborhood.
With the latest act of hostility, the Cubs have requested the city to allow them to shut down Clark and Addison streets on game days.
It comes to no surprise that local residents and community leaders are up in arms over the proposed street closures. While some of these concerns have validity, I’m still struck by the apparent disregard for the amount of influence the Cubs have on the surrounding area.
