Wrigley Field

Landmark Context

Wrigley Field is held in public view at 1060 W Addison St by the city's landmark record. City records connect the site to a construction date of 1914 and credits Zachary T. & Charles G. Davis. It was designated on February 11, 2004. Wrigley Field keeps commercial development, architectural branding, and corridor and downtown change attached to one building instead of dissolving into general background.

Wrigley Field reveals more once fieldwork compares storefront depth, upper-floor expression, and corner treatment, how the facade addresses pedestrian traffic, and later signage, infill, or reuse. That kind of fieldwork helps clarify how commercial architecture stayed visible even as the economic life around it changed.

Research Starting Points

Wrigley Field can be checked against trade press and city directories, permit files and assessor records, and historic photographs and newspaper coverage when the designation summary runs out. That is usually how a short landmark record turns into a fuller account of use, alteration, and neighborhood setting.

Wrigley Field is already usable now without pretending the historical work is finished.
