UPDATE: Minutes agoTokyo was announced as the host of the 2020 Olympics. Zaha
Hadids design to become the Olympic stadium.
Today the International Olympic Comitee (IOC) will choose the city that will host the 2020

activities. The base of the design is a complete overhaul of the Tokyo National Stadium,
that hosted the Olympics back in 1964 and has a capacity of 80,000 people. Tokyo faces

The Madrid stadium proposal looks to renovate the old La Peineta stadium. Located on the

the most reasonable and responsible financial foundation in recent Olympic history. We can
host the Olympics in 2020 with no risk to the Olympic movement.
Istanbul 2020
The new proposal for Istanbul looks to renovate an existing stadium built in 2002, and it is
part of a broader plan that looks to build 693 new sports facilities for the citizens and 25
stadiums. The redesign of the Ataturk Olympic Stadium is a key part of this plan, and was
announced as part of the 2016 candidacy of Istanbul. The stadium was used for the final of

a region that has not hosted any games so far, current conflicts in the region and recent
manifestations in the country pose a risk. For this, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan
addressed that We believe that hosting the Olympics in Istanbul will give this signal, this
spirit of friendship and sharing and peace. And our country is a place where there is a lot of
unity and diversity, and that is the idea that we can share on a broader scale with the
Olympics Games being hosted in Turkey.

Its rather disappointing to s ee this motiveless proposals f or stadium. Beside Japanese design
proposal by Zaha Hadid, which is also slap to Local designers. But I guess it is w orth investment to get the
games.
At this point, I dont see any other candidate but Tokyo to takeover the games. It is the only city able to fulfill
he task.

Zahas design is not an original idea. It is simply the Zaha-fication of the existing Soccer World Cup
2010 Stadium in Durban, South Africa (the Moses Mabhida Stadium).
