Watch Braves' New Ballpark be Built

If you want to keep track of the construction of the Atlanta Braves’ new Cobb County ballpark but can’t make it out to Smyrna to get an in-person view, the team has set up another option to satisfy your curiosity.

With a webcam perched high above what will soon be SunTrust Park, visitors are one click away from getting a live view of the construction from dawn until dusk.

According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) of materials has been set at $462 million, a price tag agreed upon by the baseball team and the construction company building the stadium. Any material costs in excess of the GMP must be paid by the construction company, the AJC says.

The Marietta Daily Journal reports that commissioners were pleased to see the GMP come in under the original estimate of $482 million, adding that their unanimous approval of the GMP was simply acknowledging that a GMP had been set, a procedural step required in the contracts between the various organizations with a stake in building the stadium.

The GMP figure does not include land acquisitions, professional fees, or landscaping services. All told, the project is predicted to cost around $672 million. Cobb County’s total contribution to the project has been capped at $300 million, the MDJ says. Most of this financial contribution will come through debt service payments on bonds the county plans to issue to pay for the stadium.
