This is the first in an occasional series that will update all of you on the project to repaint the back of the Wrigley Field scoreboard, the side that faces the corner of Waveland & Sheffield.
So far, the Cubs have put up scaffolding, and as you can see by this photo, they have removed the neon "CHICAGO CUBS" that would light up the neighborhood at night, in order to repaint.
I'll stop by the ballpark, or David Sameshima will, every so often until this project is finished to create a photographic record of the renovation. More photos after the jump. Photos taken at 3:30 pm, Wednesday, January 20.
