Braves executive discusses Atlanta Braves and Truist Park’s major economic impact on Cobb County

The Atlanta Braves have had quite an impact on Cobb County.

A time-lapse video of Truist Park shows the construction of the park from beginning to end.

Channel 2′s Steve Gehlbach has the results of a new independent study about the economic impact the team and the park has had on the county.

Since moving the team in 2015, the Atlanta Braves say Truist Park and The Battery have become a major economic engine for Cobb.

“Previous studies have made some assumptions, this is now hard, drive with facts,” said Mike Plant, Braves CEO for development.
