Neighbors of Northwestern's Ryan Field complex are concerned that issues such as increased noise and traffic would only get worse if the proposed rebuild of the stadium and its use as a concert venue were approved.
A flag flies across from an empty Ryan Field, home of the football program at Northwestern University, on July 11, 2023, in Evanston.
Wilmette residents hope the village board will take action against the proposed stadium renovation plan, saying concert noise and increased traffic from their southern neighbor would cause an increase in issues they already face during college football season.Andrea Smeeton, who lives a block away from the stadium with her husband, a former Northwestern football player, said at the meeting there are nuisances linked with the plan that seem to be targeted at Wilmette.
Smeeton also opposes the university’s request to convert 5th Street into a northbound one-way street, saying the increased traffic and idling of larger trucks needed for concerts would cause a heavy burden to those living there.
