What will happen olympic park

Every four years, the world's best athletes gather for their chance at gold in the Olympic Games. For only a few short weeks, these Olympic communities are bustling, playing host to droves of athletes and the structures they need to compete, eat, and sleep in. For each Olympic Games, millions of dollars are spent constructing stadiums, swimming pools, living quarters, and more for this very reason.

But what happens to these structures once the Games have concluded? Some Olympic villages have been converted to university housing developments, private residences, and shopping plazas. Others, however, have fallen into disarray, forever frozen in time.

So it makes sense that they would attempt to re-purpose the Olympic Villages. After the Games, London converted the East Village housing units used for athletes into 3, new homes. Venues were transformed into shops, restaurants, and schools. When the games were over, the Village was renovated into luxury condos. In recent years, the units have stood vacant. The housing used for Olympic athletes during the Sochi Winter Games is now high-end resorts. The Summer Olympics held in Athens in left the already struggling country with even more debt and they could think of nothing to do with the now moldering ruins of the stadium.

A sad end — especially for a country whose heritage birthed the very concept for the Olympic Games. Olympic stadiums get rebuilt and repurposed all the time. According to Insider , the Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium which held the Atlanta Olympics was demolished and rebuilt following the games. However, Centennial Olympic Park stands as a monument to the infamous bombing of those games, and it remains a tourist attraction complete with Olympic Ring fountain.

The same is true for the Olympiastadion in Berlin, the site of the Olympics which was abandoned for many years, but was refurbished in , still drawing crowds today. Floor plans for all the future homes can be found here. A fourth zone, called Port Village, will encompass 1, rental spaces including housing for the elderly , along with assorted shops, a daycare center, and commercial facilities. Created by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government in conjunction with eleven private companies, Harumi Flag will constitute 24 buildings that will house roughly 12, residents by A new multi-mobility station—which will include a Tokyo BRT stop, plus a community cycle port and a new dock for passenger ships—is also underway next to the mixed-use development, along with two parks, an elementary school, and a junior high school.

The apartments first hit the market in July , with 1, applications submitted for the units initially made available. Though the abodes sold pre-COVID were supposed to be delivered in early , the move-in date has subsequently been postponed a full year, frustrating many first-round buyers—a number of whom opted to back out of the deal after the sellers offered to fully refund their deposits.
