What Happened to the Olympic Stadium in Atlanta?

After the 1996 Summer Olympics, the Atlanta Olympic Stadium was transformed into a multi-purpose venue called Turner Field. It served as the home of the Atlanta Braves baseball team from 1997 to 2016. In 2017, the Braves moved to a new stadium, and Turner Field was demolished to make way for a new mixed-use development called The Gulch.

The legacy of the Olympic Stadium lives on in the form of Centennial Olympic Park, which was built adjacent to the stadium and remains a popular tourist destination. The park is home to numerous fountains, sculptures, and other attractions, and it serves as a venue for concerts, festivals, and other events.
