In March 2015, construction on the new Atlanta Falcons football stadium included progress on the concrete formwork and reinforcement steel from the upper suite level to concourse 3 as well as the elevated concrete work above the field level on the south side.
Originally estimated at $950 million, costs for the new retractable roof football stadium for the Atlanta Falcons, which is currently under construction, are now currently sitting at $1.5 billion. After design plans were revealed, the estimated costs climbed to $1.2 billion and then $1.4 billion. According to Kim Shreckengost, executive vice president for Falcons' owner Arthur Blank’s business interests, the latest $100 million cost increase is due to the financing costs of the stadium.
