The Braves return to Atlanta today for Game 3 of the World Series. The best part about being based in Atlanta is having this great team in our backyard or The Battery to be specific and there are no shortage of fans here at MillerClapperton. As the Braves face off against the Houston Astros at home in Games 3, 4, and 5 at Truist Park, keep an eye out for some of MillerClapperton’s projects. We are very proud to have so many of our projects located at The Battery, such as the Georgia Power Pavilion, Omni Hotel, Comcast Building, and the Roxy Theatre. Whether you’ll be watching the game in person, from the green space, or watching from home, we hope you spot some of these great projects while cheering on the Braves. GO BRAVES!
