Georgia State to Purchase The Ted

[Greenrex]

"Georgia State University and a prominent Atlanta development team want to acquire Turner Field and the sea of parking lots between it and downtown to create a new southern campus for the college and a $300 million mixed-use development that would transform an area threatened by the Braves’ pending departure to Cobb County.

The university wants to convert The Ted into a new 30,000-seat football, soccer and track-and-field stadium and build a new baseball park, academic buildings and green space."

I like the way they are pulling this thing together with preservation and vision. They will be interesting to watch in the coming years.
