Cubs Release ‘Champions Gate’ Rendering Ahead of July 18 Dedication
It was announced during Cubs Convention that the team would be adding a new monument to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the 2016 World Series champions. Rather than celebrating just one team or any individual players, however, they opted to acknowledge the 1907 and ’08 champs as well.
