Richmond Olympic Oval / Cannon Design | ArchDaily
The 2010 Winter Olympics and Paralympics taking place in Vancouver, Canada open today and we’d like to introduce you one of the most important venues designed for the event.
The Richmond Olympic Oval designed by Cannon Design, is located on a 32 acres of city-owned land along the banks of the Fraser River. Olympics have been a big opportunity for cities, and the facilities built for the event have the challenge to start a new development, as it has been in this case. The Oval will be the centrepiece of a major new urban waterfront neighbourhood featuring a mix of residential, commercial, and public amenity development. The new Oval neighbourhood will be a destination and meeting place offering diverse indoor and outdoor recreational activities, shopping, and services.
