In Istanbul the Olympic Park and all the sporting events will be just a javelin's throw away from each other. For the first time in decades, all the athletes will be able to stay in the same Olympic Village. Media and Referee Villages are handled under the same concept. Designs for new facilities are true to the needs of the city and faithful to the aesthetic and technical demands. As the city builds and upgrades it will be able to anticipate and apply the latest specification that will satisfy the requirements of the Olympic Family.
