    The value of raw and even improved land can wildly vary based on external and market forces beyond the developer’s control. For instance, land values could increase on the news of a proposed shopping center, but plummet on the finding of nearby environmental contamination.

    • 1429 Words
    • 6 Pages

    When reminiscing to the era in which greats such as Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig played, and when men dressed up in suit coats, top hats, and neck ties when coming to a ball game, two distinctive ballparks come to mind. These two ballparks go by the names of Wrigley Field (home of the Chicago Cubs) and Fenway Park (home of the Boston Red Sox). Wrigley Field first opened its gates back in 1914, whereas Fenway Park opened in 1912. These stadiums have stood to survive the test of time due to their old-time charm and historic aspects. “The Friendly Confines” have been the home of the Chicago Cubs since 1916, experiencing all of the pain and anguish that has come from the “lovable losers.” This ballpark has gained notoriety and fame due to its manual scoreboard, its brick, ivy covered outfield walls, its view obstructing support poles, and its famous marquee sign. Wrigley is considered by many to be baseball’s best ballpark due to its long history, old-timey feel, and historic charm. Baseball enthusiasts everywhere make a visit to Wrigley Field one of their bucket list items. One thing that has set Wrigley and Fenway apart from other ballparks are the alleged curses they possess. Wrigley has become notorious for possessing the “Curse of the Billy Goat,” compared to Fenway, which supposedly possessed the “Curse of the Great Bambino.” Fenway Park is described in much the same manner as Wrigley for its…

Father Junipero Serra founded the first mission in San Diego in the year of 1769.…
