Turner Field was the home stadium of the Atlanta Braves baseball team from 1997 to 2016 and was named for former Braves owner Ted Turner. Originally known as Centennial Olympic Stadium, the venue was constructed for track-and-field events for the 1996 Olympic Games and was subsequently remodeled by architect George T.
