(Image from The Cubdom photo gallery. Text is from my own observation and opinions.)Murphy’s Bleachers3649 N. Sheffield Avenue Murphy's rooftop is located beyond the right center field wall and has the smallest capacity of all the rooftops. This makes it an ideal location for small groups looking to book an entire rooftop for their use. I've never been up on the rooftop, but I've thrown a few back at Murphy's bar next door, and I've always had fun there. The Murphy's rooftop building is the one with the light-up Harry Caray and is one of the more attractive buildings to look at, IMHO. Please check with Murphy's Bleachers for information on rooftop ticket prices and availability. (Image from The Cubdom photo gallery.

The Skybox on Sheffield is located between the Miller Lite billboard building and Wrigley Done Right. It has a large blue structure with seats and a grill on the rooftop. I've never been up there, but the building looks pretty nice, and it was rehabbed a few years back. One of my favorite features about this building is they have baseballs on the top of the support poles for their bleacher seating area. It's a little thing, but a nice touch. (Image from The Cubdom photo gallery. Text is from my own observation and opinions.)3639 Wrigley Rooftop3639 N. Sheffield Avenue 3639 Wrigley Rooftop is located on Sheffield Ave and is situated right inside of second base (between first and second.) I haven't been up there, but it appears to be a pretty good building, and they were were featured in Sporting News August 07' issue as "Best of the Best Seats in Sports." The building was rehabbed a few years ago and comes with all the expected amenities like air conditioning and heat, an elevator, and a 200 person capacity. In the past, 3639 has sold rooftop tickets for both small groups (like 2 people) as well as larger groups (up to 200 I suppose). As another plus, I've traded emails with the owners before and they are nice people! Please check with 3639 Wrigley Rooftop for information on rooftop ticket prices and availability.

The Cubby Bear on Sheffield |
|
Wrigleyville Rooftops, which I think is affiliated with the Cubby Bear, but I'm not sure, has three rooftop buildings. One building, 1032 W. Waveland, is located in left field, next to the former Budweiser Building (I guess it would now be called the "Horseshoe Casino building"). The other two buildings are on Sheffield. The 3643 N. Sheffield building is located between Murphy's Bleachers and 3639 Wrigley Rooftop. The final building, 3609 N. Sheffield, is fairly new and is wedged into the right field foul territory.

The "Rooftop by the Firehouse" was built in 1999. It is located next door to the famous and historic Wrigleyville Firestation, so the view is from left field foul territory. I've never been up there to see a game, but I think it would be fun.
I can remember when the building was constructed. That summer, WGN kept showing all the construction workers taking breaks to watch the game. It always made me jealous, and the building is very beautiful, it has these turquoise blue highlights that completely pop out at the eye. I think it's the nicest looking building of all the rooftops. Another nice thing is that you could chat with the firemen next door who sit out on a bench and watch the folks playing catch on Waveland during the game. Please check with the Rooftop by the Firehouse for information on rooftop ticket prices and availability.
The Ivy League baseball club is currently being renovated. This photo was taken April 18, 2009.
The Wrigley Field Rooftop Club, along with it's sister rooftop, the Sheffield baseball club, were completed for the 2008 season. The building is very large and blocks the gap that used to let people watch the game from the Red Line El stop. The building is quite nice looking, but is located in right field foul territory. I've never been on top of the building, but you can often smell their barbeque.
For those who've attended a baseball game, if you ever notice the grill smoke that wafts out toward Wrigley and causes a spike in sales for the Hot Dog vendors, well, that good smelling stuff comes from the Sheffield rooftops, and it seems like the most comes from the Sheffield and Wrigley Rooftop clubs.
Be sure to visit the Waveland Avenue and Sheffield Avenue Rooftops pages to see street level photos of the rooftops, the Wrigleyville Firestation, the famous firehydrant, the Budweiser building, and more.
