Thread: Olympic Village Fly Through

QUOTE (OlympicGames @ Oct 9 2008, 10:52 PM) It's not a high end resort, or an exclusive residential community. It's an Olympic Games athlete's village. But you still have to sell the damn thing after the athletes have trashed it - not to mention all the bumps and wall bruises from the Paralympians' wheelchairs. So might as well make it a high-end community. If you build it well, they will come.

Fine, good for you. Enjoy your stay at Las Vegas or wherever it is. What else do you want me to say?

I can't find anything on the British news wires to confirm they're changing from 4,000 to 3,000 units. Even if it is true, I'm sure the athletes will survive. Is it me or are athletes becoming more and more pampered? Their every need is catered for, and it's getting to the stage where we're one step away from treating them like royalty. At the end of the day, they're just people who are chosen to compete in...

baron has a point. BUT im just soooo glad they are all at least different in height and colour. i dont think i could deal with another o village with each building looking exactly the same. love that they are creating a community of buildings rather than the genericness we saw in beijing and athens
