It is interesting to note that attendance at Comerica Park has not been great, but is good in June, July, August, and is improving as the Tigers are. So a new park does not guarantee great attendance for many years, ultimately the product dictates that. Because as I mentioned earlier, the Tigers were not drawing well at Tiger Stadium either in the 90s, despite a classic, historic ballpark everybody here loved.

 

Indeed. Which....was.....why I was suggesting what I was suggesting in the first place :wink:

 

But no matter. It looks like the Cubs will simply replace Wrigley piece-by-piece, as others on this thread have noted.

 

It will be interesting to see what happens with the main grandstand structure. That will be the largest project, and will probably need to be handled with the greatest care lest the ballpark go from "classic Wrigley" to "new Wrigley" and lose its historical appeal.
