New Renderings Released of Braves Stadium

The Atlanta Braves have released new drawings of their planned 41,000-plus seat Cobb County stadium.

The images show a stadium with least four decks and a broad sun canopy with gathering places for fans. It also provides a glimpse of the design concepts behind the $400 million mixed-use complex planned to sit around the ballpark.

“This is a very early look at how our vision is shaping up and, even though we are still months away from final plans and drawings, we are very pleased with the progress,” said John Schuerholz, president of the Atlanta Braves. “The renderings represent the sense of place we intend to create 365 days a year in addition to a world-class ballpark.”

The Braves have also announced the launch of a waitlist for fans who are non-season ticket holders and who are interested in purchasing season tickets in the new ballpark. Current season ticket holders already receive top priority in securing season tickets for the new ballpark.

“No, Turner Field was built after the Olympic arena was torn down after”

I thought they just reconstructed part of it. I don’t think they tore it down.

Even Green Bay's newly renovated Lambeau Field that had a half-percent sales tax, barely passed

the Green Bay fans own the team and the stadium....

huge mistake not having a retractable roof on it so they can play on rain days and when it’s still colder.

“Fenway looks all of 1919. They need to rebuild it. “

Already done-—and we all love it.

Nice,
And to make it even better them Braves will be leaving Fulton county and Atlanta behind.
Guess Atlanta won’t have that cash cow to take advantage of any more.
