Rio Olympic Venues Are Abandoned and in Disrepair After Only One Year

You thought Grossinger’s in the Catskills was a travesty?

There are one year old apartment building complexes that are vacant. Stadiums abandoned. Parks closed to the public.

Why fight for the Olympics to come to your country to squander all that money and not repurpose the infrastructure?

 

ht/all too much

  1. I was in Japan, then traveled to see the Asian games in Korea. Later, I found out HUGE money was spent to build complexes over 10 years, social programs were CUT, land is of premium value but stadiums were built anyway, and now the structures are virtually useless.

    Politicians said that the cost of showcasing Korea to investors and the world was worth every penny.
