Great great location! And it's huge!!!

Always Casa Brasil are placed in small places, but this time it seems it will be extreme!

No comments on how London is charming and fascinating! Lovely pics!

GBForums have been boring lately... Miss the good discussions and points. The nice follow-ups on buildings and so on...
Now we have only chat with trolls or weeks without the old good boys posting...
So I'm giving a break, but I'll be back soon. Meanwhile I'll be around in SkyScrapercity, where no trolling and city vs. city is allowed.

Officers from the Mayor's London 2012 team have been collaborating with their counterparts in Brazil since the city won its bid to host the 2016 games in 2009. In particular, the Mayor's team have been offering advice on how the Brazilian authorities could light or dress Waterloo Bridge, next to Somerset house, to become the gateway to their official 2012 games residence and international promotional base next year.

Brazil wants giant Christ sculpture on Primrose Hill

Secret plans to build a giant replica of the Rio de Janeiro statue Christ the Redeemer near the summit of Primrose Hill to promote the 2016 Olympics can be revealed today.

The project, funded by the Brazilian government, has already divided opinion in the celebrity neighbourhood that is home to Kate Moss, amid fears it will ruin the view.

The plans are so sensitive that London consultants hired by the Brazilians are quietly consulting residents before submitting their plans to Camden council.

Residents who have not yet seen the designs have been told the proposed replica could be up to 30 feet high. The statue, which the Brazilians want "close to the pinnacle" of Primrose Hill, would be visible for miles from one of the highest points in the capital.

According to the emails, leaked to the Camden New Journal and seen by the Standard, the Brazilian government wants to celebrate the moment that London hands the Olympic baton to Rio after the closing ceremony on August 12.

The emails show the organisers demanding total secrecy and were sent to prominent residents by Camden-based design firm See Me, Hear Me, Feel Me.

One states: "Due to the high profile nature of the proposals and the Tourism Board of Brasil's (sic) desire to unveil the structure as a surprise at the end of the closing ceremony, we would ask that all correspondence remains strictly private and confidential at this time. We trust that this is acceptable."

Malcolm Kafetz, chairman of the Friends of Primrose Hill, called the statue "unsuitable".

A spokesman for planning consultants Dalton Warner Davis, who are working with the Tourism Board of Brazil and See Me, Hear Me, Feel Me Ltd said: "There are a number of options regarding design and location being considered and therefore it is premature to comment."

If people in UK agrees with this kind of marketing, I have nothing against some advertising of Rio 2016 in London.
In fact, it will be really nice for both, since this kind of things brings more people to the city and make the brand strong.

...
The first official products will be for sale at a shop to be installed at Casa Brasil in London, UK, during this year’s Olympic and Paralympic Games.

The first category of products that will be licensed is collectibles (coins, stamps and pins); next, clothing (amounting to half of the revenues from licensing), in 2013; and hardlines (such as stationery, toys and home products), in the second semester of 2014.
