About West Side Grounds
West Side Grounds was home to the Chicago Cubs from 1893 to 1915, built on the city's West Side at a cost of $30,000. Expansions brought its capacity to 16,000 by 1908, and the Cubs won four pennants there, including a record 116-win season in 1906 and back-to-back World Series titles in 1907 and 1908; the park also hosted the first intracity World Series between the Cubs and White Sox. It was demolished in 1920 after the Cubs moved to Weeghman Park, which survives today as Wrigley Field.
