Commercial Construction in Smyrna, Georgia
Smyrna’s commercial profile changed dramatically with the arrival of Truist Park and The Battery Atlanta — the Atlanta Braves’ stadium and adjoining mixed-use entertainment district that opened in 2017, drawing office, hotel, retail, and restaurant development to what had been a quieter Cobb County suburb. Alongside that district, Smyrna’s Market Village retail corridor and traditional commercial areas continue to serve the city’s established residential base.
Plescia Construction & Development provides commercial general contracting for retail, hospitality, and mixed-use projects throughout Smyrna and Cobb County.
An Entertainment-District-Anchored Market
Few Georgia suburbs have seen a single development reshape their commercial identity the way The Battery Atlanta has for Smyrna — creating year-round, event-driven demand for hospitality, retail, and office space adjacent to Truist Park that didn’t exist a decade ago.


Truist Park and The Battery Atlanta
The Battery Atlanta’s mixed-use development around Truist Park combines office space, hotels, restaurants, and entertainment retail into a walkable district timed to the Braves’ event calendar — construction and renovation projects in this corridor need to account for game-day traffic and crowd logistics the way a more conventional suburban commercial project wouldn’t.

Cobb County Code & Georgia State Building Code
Smyrna commercial construction is permitted through Cobb County or the City of Smyrna under the Georgia State Minimum Standard Building Code, without coastal wind provisions — permitting centers on standard structural and life-safety code, plus the crowd-management and life-safety considerations that apply to construction near a major sports and entertainment venue.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you build retail and restaurant space near Truist Park?
Yes. Retail, restaurant, and hospitality construction in the Battery Atlanta entertainment district is a core part of our Smyrna work, scheduled around the Braves’ game-day calendar.
Do you renovate space in Smyrna Market Village?
Yes, including renovation and tenant improvement work in Smyrna’s established Market Village retail corridor.
How does construction scheduling work near a sports venue?
We build the Braves’ home-game calendar into project scheduling for Battery Atlanta-area work — avoiding disruptive deliveries or lane closures during peak game-day traffic.
Is Smyrna subject to Georgia's coastal building code provisions?
No — Smyrna is well inland, so commercial construction follows the Georgia State Minimum Standard Building Code’s standard provisions rather than coastal wind-load requirements.
