Massive Atlanta Sports City complex officially announced; NASL, NWSL on the way?

During a press conference this afternoon, plans were officially announced for Atlanta Sports City, a huge sports complex located in suburban DeKalb County beside The Mall of Stonecrest. The 200-acre complex will be right outside the city of Lithonia and be located about a half-hour or so east of Downtown Atlanta.

[The] giant sports complex featuring a 15,000-seat stadium, 22 soccer fields and seven baseball diamonds...will become the second-largest multi-sport facility in the southeast, behind only Disney’s ESPN Wide World of Sports.

It will complement LakePoint Sports in Emerson, which focuses on baseball.
