Plans revealed for Centennial Yards

Developers have revealed plans for Centennial Yards, which could be the southeast's largest entertainment center upon completion.

ATLANTA - Developers are hoping to start working on the next phase of Centennial Yards by next summer.

Centennial Yards is located next to State Farm Arena and Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The massive entertainment venue will include a hotel, several food-and-beverage tenants, a plaza, apartments, retail space and more.

Centennial Yards is being built in 8 phases. Construction has already started on an apartment building and a boutique hotel that are slated to be completed in 2025.

The design and architectural firm Gensler is working on the $5 billion project.
