Sneak peek at Gwinnett Braves stadium

Baseball fans got their first glimpse of what the minor league Gwinnett Braves stadium could look like when an architect recently revealed a more than a dozen new renderings.

Baseball fans got their first glimpse of what the minor league Gwinnett Braves stadium could look like when an architect recently revealed more than a dozen new renderings.

The drawings by HKS Architects sports & entertainment group, presented Wednesday to the Gwinnett Convention and Visitors Bureau, show an open-air entryway and spaces for concessions, a team store, and home and visitors clubhouses.

As with most minor-league stadiums, most seats put fans within shouting distance of the players.

County leaders have said they want to evoke the Atlanta area's baseball past in creating the new ballpark for the Gwinnett Braves, including the former Atlanta Cracker's park on Ponce de Leon in Atlanta.

The new stadium drawings show plenty of red brick and exposed beams.

Perspective drawings from outside the stadium show a warehouse look, a nod to the Bona Allen Shoemakers, a semi-pro team backed by the Bona Allen tannery in Buford.

The seating arrangement favors the left side, where the Braves dugout will be.

Early sketches show larger-than-life images of players.

It may be a game for the boys of summer, but some fans will still want to spend some time indoors.

Construction is scheduled to be complete by the start of the Braves season in April of next year.
