Suntrust Park Begins To Take Shape

Talked to a buddy yesterday. The Battery is a cluster right now. Don't know how they're going to get ready in time. Ballpark would be ready to go if certain parties weren't going above and beyond the building and fire code at the last second. It's to the point where the Braves have thrown their hands up and they're planning on playing baseball no matter what. Ugly situation. Everyone's frustrated. Was told it wasn't due to politics but due to inexperience of parties trying to throw up roadblocks at the last second. Hotel and Comcast building won't be open until much later.

It's already been made public that the entire Battery won't be ready to start the year. I don't think that was ever really the plan. They'll have some of the restaurants and stuff ready right away, then the rest of it will become ready throughout the year.
 
They are/were shooting for much of it to be finished by opening day. Not the residences, but many other things. It was recently thought that us fans wouldn't go to see a game in the middle of a construction zone. Not the thought now.

Whatever buddy. Bottom line. Whatever "the plan" is has gone sideways here towards end.

I can assure you it is going forward basically as planned. The structures are essentially complete, it is now in the hands of the tenants to build the interior. It was always going to be an 8-month process to build the interior of Comcast once the structure was finished, it is not a new development that it won't be done until late in 2017.
 
Sheesh. Now I'm starting to get why some avoid this place like the plague. Share a little info and you get these types of responses.

Haha I didn't mean to jump down your throat, was just saying that things aren't the disaster you were portraying. Things are looking fine for the stadium opening.
