The city has undergone a noticeable transformation in course of preparing for the event. The Olympic events will take place in 28 venues. The architects have cone a commendable job in transforming the London Olympic Park from a unusable lying land to a eye-pleasing venue for the Olympics.It was indeed a challenge for the designers to work on that location because the place met a number of roads, waterways which generated pollution, junkyards and rail lines which have not been used for quite some time.The most challenging part was to link this part with the rest of London.They made developments like cleaned up waterways and pedestrian bridges. After, the event, the Park would be handed over to the local people which would ultimately turn into a hub for offices, housing projects and community markets. The transformation can be better understood with these images Edited July 27, 2012 by ritu (see edit history) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
