The University System of Georgia Board of Regents Wednesday approved Georgia State University’s plan to buy Turner Field and convert what has been a baseball park for nearly 20 years into a football stadium.

The $52.8 million project calls for Georgia State to buy the 38.4-acre Turner Field site from the Atlanta-Fulton County Recreation Authority for $22.8 million, then convert the ballpark into a 22,000-seat artificial turf stadium for the football Panthers, a $26 million renovation project.
