In early July, the Cubs revealed plans for a new ballpark in Lakewood. The new park will be built on land once owned by former Chicago Mayor Richard Daley, who also called the park “the center of Chicago.” The ballpark will Feature a retractable roof, spectator canals, and a stage area, as well as features a community garden and gym.
New Wrigley Field construction is underway
In early September, the Chicago Parks and Recreation Board approved the plans for a new Wrigley Field, which will now be known as Millennium Park. The $1.2 billion project, which will span 36 acres, is expected to begin construction in 2020 and be completed in 2022.

In addition to the retractable roof, the new Wrigley Field will have a stage area, which will host concerts and sporting events, as well as a children’s zoo. The park also will feature two play areas with slides, a water slide, and a rollercoaster.
What will become of the old Wrigley Field?
Wrigley Field, which is now called Old Orchard Park, is expected to be torn down and built over once the new ballpark is completed. Many fans will want to keep the old Wrigley Field, and the team has been listening.
On October 1, the team confirmed that they would be keeping the old ballpark. However, they would be moving its capacity to 19,500, which will make the old ballpark smaller than the new ballpark.

Stadium Village will be made up of a proposed four-lane boulevard, a shopping center, an education campus, and a hotel.
