Morning Marta sharing more visuals of what
the Five Points train station will look like
once its renovations are complete.
Marta says it's in the process of transforming the station
into a vibrant city center to improve transit connectivity,
safety, and just the overall
customer experience. So crews are working
to add a new canopy, centralized bus hub.
Public spaces, lighting, and better pedestrian connections.
The project is expected to be finished in 2031
and will cost about $230 million.
Ted Turner is officially on the ballot
for the 2027 class of the Baseball Hall of Fame.
The former Atlanta Braves owner built a...
powerhouse throughout the 90s,
with the team anchoring multiple wins, including the 1995
World Series championships.
So if inducted, Turner would join other iconic figures from
his championship era, like Bobby Cox and Chipper Jones.
We'll have to wait a bit for those results, though.
The votes won't be announced until
December 6th. So listen,
Ted Turner was a different kind of he was a legend in a lot
of ways. Yeah, sure. I think they call him
Captain Fantastic. He I'd like I'd like to
I'd like to see it, why not?
You know about this.
Does he have a real possibility here?
I mean, I think he does, but because he did usher
in that era of 14 straight division titles for the Braves,
and he had his hands in that when it started.
He already brought in John Sherholtz, so yeah.
Sounds like he belongs in there.
We'll see.
Wouldn't surprise me.
Wouldn't surprise me.
Good to know.
