The London Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) and the London Olympic Organising Committee (LOCOG) just released its plans for the Athlete’s Village in the city. The Athlete’s Village is adjacent to the Olympic Park and Stratford City and will accommodate athletes during both the Olympic and Paralympic Games in 2012.
The Athlete’s village will have 2,818 new homes that will be available for Londoners after the games are over, and 1,379 will be affordable homes. Nearly 1,000 homes will be for families with three and four bedrooms. The village will spread out over 11 residential blocks, with recreational space based on a typical British village green.
ODA Chairman John Armitt said: “Providing a world-class Village will play a crucial role in helping athletes deliver record-breaking performances in 2012 but we are also focusing on creating gold-medal-standard housing in legacy.”
“By aiming for the highest standards in design, sustainability and construction we will ensure the Village is a high-quality asset for the public-sector that delivers a lasting legacy for east London.”
