Grady Stadium is an Atlanta Public School football stadium located in the vibrant neighborhood of Midtown Atlanta, just south of Piedmont Park. The stadium is one of two stadiums owned and managed by the Atlanta Public Schools system. It is the only high school stadium in Atlanta that is located on campus of a high school. The stadium was used as a training site for athletes during the 1996 Olympic Games, and occasionally hosts public practices for the Atlanta Falcons. Grady stadium was designed by Richard Aeck, and is considered a masterpiece of modern engineering expression. [1]
