the white sox struggled for the rest of the 1980s, as chicago fought to keep the sox in town. reinsdorf wanted to replace the aging comiskey park, and sought public funds to do so. when talks stalled, a strong offer was made to move the team to the tampa, florida, area. funding for a new ballpark was approved in an 11th-hour deal by the illinois state legislature on june 30, 1988, with the stipulation that new park had to be built on the corner of 35th and shields, across the street from the old ballpark, as opposed to the suburban ballpark the owners had designed. architects offered to redesign the ballpark to a more "retro" feel that would fit in the city blocks around comiskey park; however, the ownership group was set on a 1991 open date, so they kept the old design. in 1991, the new comiskey park opened. however, it was rendered obsolete a year later with the opening of the retro-inspired oriole park at camden yards. the park, now known as guaranteed rate field, underwent many renovations in the early 2000s to give it a more retro feel.
