Wrigley Park

This article is about the neighborhood in New Jersey. For the baseball stadium in Chicago, see Wrigley Field.

Wrigley Park, also called Fourth Ward, is a neighborhood located north of Broadway in Paterson, New Jersey. The neighborhood has experienced years of poverty, crime, and neglect. However, there are new houses being built and crime has dropped in recent years.

The city has planned to address the empties lot in this section of the city through fines and eventually taking them over to sell to developers.^[1]
