The actual section of outfield wall over which Hank Aaron hit home run #715 on April 8, 1974 — the swing that broke Babe Ruth's all-time record. The wall segment was preserved and reinstalled at its original location (521 Capitol Ave SE) when the old Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium was demolished. A monument marks the exact spot where the ball cleared. Aaron did it despite receiving death threats and racist hate mail throughout the chase.
