Dear Mrs. Brown :
May I ackno ledge receipt of your l~tter regarding
the dome for the Atlanta Stadium.
This was merely a proposal by the architects as
to the technical manner wher by the taclium <:ould
be domed, and there are no definite plans to proceed
with it.
The money for the Atlanta Stadium. did not come from
the city of Atlanta, nor would addit.ional funds come
from the City. Such funds come from tbe sale of the
Stadium Authority bonds, which is not a city pxoject.
I appreciate your vi ws nd agree with you th t there
are m any other thing that need to be done first in the
City.
Sincerely,
lvan Allen, Jr.

Re:
Atlanta Stadium Dome
Dear Ivan:
As you requested, we have over the past few months made an
extensive study of the possibilities for a removable roof
for Atl a nta Stadium.
Working with Birdair Structures, Inc., we have now developed
a design for an air-supported "umbrella" roof dome that
Birdair believes can be put up or taken down in only three
hours.
This roof would be lifted into place by a 300-ft. hi g h
telescoping mast in the center of the field, which would
then retract into a missile-type "silo," leaving the stadium
covered and ready for use. We submit herewith slides and
drawings illustrating the system.
Rough pre liminary estimates indica te that the r oof system
and mast, i ncluding the air-support e quipme nt and a ventilation system , would probably cost between $1½ and $2
million. However, the present field lighting system would
have to be modified, thereby making the total cost of the
roof, its support systems, lighting modifications, and
other work on portal vestibules , etc., possibly as hi gh
as $4 or $5 million. However, a side benefit of t he lighting modifications could be t he raising of li ght levels to
new requirement s for night color television for footbal l .
As you will recall, all other types of dome structures and
mechanical systems proposed in the past have been estimated
at $15 to $18 million.
�HEERY AND HEERY· Fli'JCH. ALEXANDER, BARNES. ROTHSCHILD.AND PASCHAL
The Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr .
April 10, 1967
Page 2
This new approach would not only be less objectionable aesthetically, but could be utilized as a permanent-type roof,
should the Authority subsequently find it desirable to
install a heating a nd air conditioning system and plan to
leave the roof in place for extended periods of time or
permanently. The probable cost for a heating and air conditioning system for the stadium would run between $5 and
$6 million, which would still give Atlanta a far better
barga in than the Houston stadium, which cost some $38 million and is substantially smaller in both seating capacity
and dimension than the Atlanta Stadium .
We believe that this design may be an answer to your desire
to assure f a ns traveling to Atlanta Stadium from cities
throughout the Southeast that scheduled events will be
played on the scheduled dates.
Sincerely yours ,
HEERY AND HEERY - FI NCH ALEXANDER BARNES ROTHSCHILD & PASCHAL

Re: Atlanta Stadium Dome
Dear Ivan:
As you requested, we have over the past few months made an
extensive study of the possibilities for a removable roof
for Atlanta Stadium,
Working with Birdair Structures, Inc., we have now developed
a design for an air-supported "umbrella" roof dome that
Birdair believes can be put up or taken down in only three
hours.
This roof would be lifted into place by a 300-ft. high
telescoping mast in the center of the field, which would
then retract into a missile-type "silo," leaving the stadium
covered and ready for use. We submit herewith slides and
drawings illustrating the system.
Rough preliminary estimates indicate that the roof system
and mast, including the air-support equipment and a venti-
lation system, would probably cost between $14 and $2
million. However, the present field lighting system would
have to be modified, thereby making the total cost of the
roof, its support systems, lighting modifications, and
other work on portal vestibules, etc., possibly as high
as $4 or $5 million. However, a side benefit of the light-
ing modifications could be the raising of light levels to
new requirements for night color television for football.
As you will recall, all other types of dome structures and
mechanical systems proposed in the past have been estimated
at $15 to $18 million.

This new approach would not only be less objectionable aes-
thetically, but could be utilized as a permanent-type roof,
should the Authority subsequently find it desirable to
install a heating and air conditioning system and plan to
leave the roof in place for extended periods of time or
permanently. The probable cost for a heating and air con-
ditioning system for the stadium would run between $5 and
$6 million, which would still give Atlanta a far better
bargain than the Houston stadium, which cost some $38 mil-
lion and is substantially smaller in both seating capacity
and dimension than the Atlanta Stadium,
We believe that this design may be an answer to your desire
to assure fans traveling to Atlanta Stadium from cities
throughout the Southeast that scheduled events will be
played on the scheduled dates.
Sincerely yours,
HEERY AND HEERY - FINCH ALEXANDER BARNES ROTHSCHILD & PASCHAL

A giant umbrella raised in less than three hours may be in the
works for Atlanta Stadium.
Proposed to Atlanta Mayor Ivan Allen today was an historic
first--an air-supported stadium roof project costing less than one third
that for previous similar projects.
The plastic umbrella, going up or down according to the weather,
could become a model for other stadium structures in the country.
Its
development resulted from the joint efforts of the architects who
designed Atlanta Stadium and a Buffalo, N. Y., manufacturing company.
Architects George T. Heery of Heery & Heery and James H. Finch
of Finch, Alexander, Barnes, Rothschild& . Paschal presented Mayor Ivan
Al l en , J r . thei r s olution to a s tadi um dome to assure fair weather for
all a t hle ti c c ontes t s and other e vent s at Atl a nta Stadium .
"The b eauty of th is typ e o f c overi n g ," th e arch itec t s said, "i s
its flexibility .
We can hav e s unsh i n e for o u r grass in f a ir weather
and still provide complete protec t ion for fans wh e n e v er t he rai n s come."
The unique design will give Atlanta the larg~st protected playing
field in the world, exceeding by far Houston's celebrated Astrodome
in si.z e and spec tator capacity.
�- Page 2 A 300-foot tall telescoping mast in the center of the field
would raise the roof into place, and then would retract into a
missile type "silo" leaving the stadium covered and ready for use
in only three hours erection time.
Mayor Allen had requested the architect's study, seeking a
way to cover Atlanta Stadium without the expense and problems
rn;;g un t§r~g "t1y Houston with its p
rm n
nt:. dom
.
"Atlanta 's weather is unusually good," he had pointed out,
both ba seball and football.
" f or
We we r e looking for a de vice to assure
Atlanta fans and those who travel from Southeaste r n c iti es t hat
they would see the scheduled conte s ts . "
Heating and cooling will still be p oss i ble under th e umbre ll a
arrangement, if the Atlanta Stadium Authority feels the expense is
justified.
However, a ventilation system will b e a part of the
original project that will maintain comfortable conditions for the 3-4
hours of expected periods of u se.
The plastic roof initially will demand modifications of lighting,
portal v estibules and other work which will run the total cost to
four to five million dollars.
But this compares with a $15 - 18 million
figure for dome structures and mechancial systems proposed in the past.
Houston Stadium was constructed with dome at a cost of about $38
million, and is over 100 feet smal le r than Atlanta Stadium, wi th 10,000
less seating capacity.
�- Page 3 -
Construction cost of Atlanta Stadium was $18 million, including
land,
financing cost and other fees connected with the revenue bond.
The new umbrella dome would give Atlanta the world's largest
roof span with approximately 740 feet in diameter, free of obstruction.
Various forms of design since the early 1920's in Germany have
flirted with oval coverings, beginning with the Zeiss-Dywidag method
extending to the Union dome in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in 1958--at
that time the largest dome ever built, measuring 394· feet in diameter
and rising to 116 feet.
The Buffalo, N. Y.,
firm who participated in the Atlanta
proposal, estimates the roof system, ventilation system and air
support equipment will probably cost $1½ to $2 million, excluding the
lighting changes.
A byproduct of the lighting modification would be raising of
light level to ideal requirements for night color television.

Proposed Covering for Atlanta Stadium
Dear Mr. Nixon:
You asked for my comments on the proposed air-supported covering
on the Atlanta Stadium, and I would think that the following
information would be necessary before one could fairly judge the
above structure:
1.
The material used and the life expectancy.
2.
The noise of the inflating equipment.
3.
The number of men that it takes to erect and take down
the covering, as they would have to be trained people
on a regular payroll in order to function efficiently.
4.
For an ingress and egress for a large number of people
the method of controlling the pressure for keeping the
dome supported.
I am afraid this is not of much help, but I believe the information
would be necessary before one could make a recommendation.
Yours truly,

Dr. Bevel Jones
St. Marks Methodist Church
Peachtree at 5th Street
Atlanta, Georgia
Dear Bevel:
Thank you so much for your note regarding the name
change of the Council of Churches and your desire to
sponsor the Sunrise Service at the Stadium next
Easter. In my opinion, this is most appropriate,
and I am forwarding this information to Earl Landers,
who serves on the Stadium Authority.
May I assure you that I will be delighted to issue a
proclamation declaring the first Sunday as Christian
Council Sunday. If you and Dr. Moore will draft the
appropriate proclamation, we will be delighted to
arrange a mutually convenient time to make the
official presentation.
Sincerely yours,
Ivan Allen, Ir.
Mayor
