The tour group that I was part of (in '07) spent a little time there on our way to Philly. I'm grateful it 's been preserved. And this from a Yankees fan!
I'm a diehard Tribe fan too. I kind of both agree and disagree about this though. On one hand, the Forbes Field wall is in a nice area and everything, but that's all there is of it. Most the field is covered by the college hall.
I know League Park is in a bad neighborhood, but I like that the actual field and ticket booth and everything is still there.
I don't know if you did go there, but if not you should. It really is a cool experience to walk there imagining what it was like years ago.
I was part of a tour group back in '07 and we all got a big kick out of seeing the wall before heading out to Philly.

@Cooley24485 It was done because of some construction by the University back in '73 or '74. At least Home Plate is still where it always was.
