Each Legacy Brick comes inscribed with a personalized message and will become part of a new baseball diamond-shaped plaza outside the main entrance to the ballpark. A life-sized white bronze and granite sculpture celebrating the 2005 White Sox World Series Championship will stand at the center of the plaza, with a historical timeline of the franchise along the diamond's base paths.

Proceeds from the sale of Legacy Bricks support Chicago White Sox Charities, the team's philanthropic arm. Since 1991, Chicago White Sox Charities has donated millions of dollars to cancer research and treatment, youth education and athletics, and programs that support Chicago kids and families.
