Parking at Cubs game

Just needed some help. I am going to Wrigley Field for the first time in 25 years and have never driven there. I did buy a parking pass for the Irving Park Lot, and I am betting it%26#39;s on Irving Park Road, but exactly where?

I%26#39;ll be driving there straight from O%26#39;Hare (wish me luck), if anybody is giving me directions.

Thanks in advance!

Per cubs.mlb.com:

';The Cubs operate and supervise a parking lot located at 1126 W. Grace St. Parking passes can be purchased through the phone by calling Tickets.Com at 1-800-THE-CUBS. Parking is not available for weekends, nights and holidays. ';

Did you buy the pass from the Cubs?

If that%26#39;s the lot, take I-90 from O%26#39;Hare and exit at Irving Park Road, all the way to Clark St. Then right on Clark, and left on Grace. (Per Google maps.)

If I recall correctly, this is the lot that back in the day was run by a nearby convent. You%26#39;d pay the nuns the parking fee.

I did buy the pass from the Cubs, but I don%26#39;t think it%26#39;s the lot on Grace... They gave me a choice of two lots, one for $20 (betting that%26#39;s the Grace lot) and the Irving Park Lot for $10. I figured I could pay the cheaper price and walk the few extra blocks.

But thanks...

Ah OK. I don%26#39;t see anything on the Cubs website about that lot, but see some third-party sellers offering that lot, saying it%26#39;s at 1052 W. Irving Park Rd. So, I-90 to Irving Park Rd. and go east. It will be on the left side (north side of the street), just past the cemetery.

I believe there is a commuter lot on Irving Park Road that shuttles people in on buses to the game. I%26#39;m not sure exactly how far west it is, but it%26#39;s closer to the highway than the stadium.

That would be the lot by DeVry, by Addison %26amp; Western.

But that wouldn%26#39;t be the lot for which the OP has a parking pass.

OK, here is the answer.

The Irving Park Lot is a skinny lot on the north side of Irving Park Road on the west side of the train tracks (and under the tracks themselves). It%26#39;s really easy to miss if you%26#39;re not familiar with the neighborhood. Eventually, a Cubs employee at the ';Green'; lot showed me the way.

Once I figured out where I was going, it worked out well. You park there and walk south on Seminary to get to Wrigley.

I%26#39;m wondering where you saw the option to buy these parking passes. I can%26#39;t find that anywhere.

Thanks.
