The Olympic Village - pictures

The Olympic Village will soon be invaded by athletes and this is where they'll stay.
So for your viewing pleasure here you can see what I think has become a very nice construction for the Torino 2006 organization and Torino as a whole. The apartments' interior meant for the athletes is rather modest, but functional.

Most spectacular is the exterior which has some rather fresh color choices. A brave choice, but something that blends well with the area.

According to the president of the organizing committee TOROC,
Jaques Rogge, the president of the International Olympic Committee has supposedly said that this is 'the best
Olympic village in the history of the Games'.

In the heart of the city, next to the Olympic Stadium in the quiet area of Lingotto, the athletes have the optimal conditions to prepare for the competitions.
