Bleacher Repair Project? Photo taken from CubsCam this morning shows an area of the right center field bleachers covered with some temporary framework and plastic sheeting. Anyone know what is being done?

Well, if Cuban had bought the Cubs, I'd say this is the start of a new owner's box...
But after checking out the view from the other camera, it appears to be as you suggest – a bleacher repair project.
If this link works, you can see some broken benches scattered around.

Broken?
Just looks like they’ve been removed and placed next to where the repair is being done.
My guess is that they’re replacing concrete. I believe that the tenting w/ some forced air heating is needed to allow concrete to cure properly, something that the extreme cold would prevent.

that makes more sense
yea, I suppose if the benches were broken, they would have been tossed out upon removal instead of just set aside.

Noooo!
Then I’d have to get another new sig!

Something leftover...
from the Winter Classic?

I love a good mystery
Is this the area near the stairs? Maybe they are widening the stairs, it always struck me as a bottleneck.
Out with the Old and in with the Nucleus The Tortured Fan Base welcomes our new owner.

Looks like
they are doing the same thing to some lower box seats on the third base side behind home plate as well.

They are working on the bleacher entrance as well
I heard a jack hammer from inside our apartment and couldn’t see anything I walked by the bleacher entrance and they were doing something to the concrete next to the elevator. Idk why considering it isn’t that old. Probably just on going maintenance to Wrigley in tip top shape.
Someday we'll go all the way.
