Tom Ricketts, chief architect of the massive overhaul that is underway, envisions the day when Wrigley and its surrounding neighborhood will hold the appeal of a European plaza — one where tourists are drawn to the mere dramatic presence of a landmark.

What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly. -Thomas Paine By: Mark Glennon Clear video evidence shows a concerted effort by the Democratic party to incite violence to disrupt political activity of Donald Trump and others. If you haven’t seen the must-see video, it’s linked here. The central figure is Chicagoan Robert Creamer, husband of Rep. Jan Schakowsky, who is properly implicated, too.
