Rebuilding new Comiskey and having it face southeast was one of the most boneheaded decisions in Chicago stadium history. Right behind tearing down the OG park. No need to move to the South Loop for views; the skylines views from the current stadium are pretty impressive ... from the north facing exit ramps.
I know the old park was is very bad shape towards the end, but retaining parts/all of the exterior would have been a worthy investment and a great way to tie in the franchise's long and storied history.
