CHICAGO -- The Chicago Cubs plan to block the view of Wrigley Field from the only rooftop that has not agreed to share revenues with the team.

Cubs President Andy MacPhail would not say how the Cubs would block the baseball field's view from Skybox on Waveland.

Twelve of the thirteen rooftop business that overlook Wrigley have agreed to share revenues after disputing with the team for years. Skybox has not agreed.

Skybox's attorney Chris Gair says the 125-seat rooftop will "never pay anything" to the Cubs.

Alderman Tom Tunney says the Cubs need to continue to build goodwill in the community and blocking Skybox's view does not help.

But George Loukas of the Wrigleyville Rooftop Owners Association says the other rooftop owners will not feel sorry for Skybox if its view is blocked.
