you can love or hate the aesthetics of the new developments, but the vast majority of what they have replaced was compete suburban garbage - fast food drive-thu's and surface parking lots galore.
...I can live without those specific items....but Rickettsville goes way beyond that......Addison St has been completely transformed ("Rickettized"), the Wrigley rooftops (what's left of them) have lost a lot of their charm, the field itself is gaudy billboards, club boxes, everything has become "cleanup, sanitary, and suburbanized"......just like Times Square
