Beijing's new Olympic Village



The Olympic Village in Beijing is another remarkable example of the country's growth and excitement to host the world.

In 2002, I worked at the Olympic Village in Salt Lake City.  Those have since become student housing units at the city's University of Utah.  

This Sunday the BOC has just unveiled its gorgeous and expensive Olympic Village (partially pictured above).  
 
The new facilities at the Olympic Village will provide the over 10,000 athletes with Lenovo computer lounges, extravagant eateries, comfortable suites, free haircuts, free Mandarin classes and tutors, as well as beautifully manicured gardens and parks.  It even has a large library and its own fire department.

By the end of 2008, the apartments in the Olympic Village will become available for rent, sale, or lease.  If you're looking to live in Beijing, these are great lofts!
