Members of the Commission on Chicago Landmarks listen to representatives of the Chicago Cubs during a meeting Thursday in Chicago. There was a discussion about allowing the baseball team to build a left-field Jumbotron at Wrigley Field and add another sign in right field. The Cubs say they have reached an agreement with the city that would allow the team to build the screen and add the sign, but the city's landmarks commission must sign off on any changes to historic structures.
