[quote]Georgia State University has outlined its proposal to purchase Turner Field and the acres of parking lots that fill the space between it and downtown. GSU, along with a development team, would create a new southern campus and mixed-use development. GSU would convert The Ted into a 30,000 seat football stadium, and build other sports facilities, students housing, classrooms and greenspace on part of the 80-acre site, and real estate developer Carter would build a mixed-use development of shops, restaurants, retail, hotels and housing.[/quote
ETA Cobb deal almost finalized. 30 year deal

This is a very good move by GSU.

Best thing which could happen with it I suppose.

They need the space.
They already use the parking lots for their campus (shuttles go into the university).
I won't say that it is a good decision, yet.
Atlanta hasn't been able to do anything positive with that area in 40 years. And that even includes an Olympic rebuild and budget. Maybe GaState can get it right. But they are going to have to show me.
