More problems with BC Place Roof: http://vancouver.24hrs.ca/News/local/2010/...8/12512016.html Cypress Mountain isn’t the only Olympic venue where rain wreaked havoc with VANOC last week. 24 hours has learned that a large quantity of water cascaded through drainage holes on B.C. Place Stadium’s roof and crashed to the floor around 8 p.m. Thursday night. A panel of the air-supported fabric roof inverted when water accumulated during a rainstorm.

Today they add the three spokes that will turn in the wind. The Turbine will generate about one quarter of Grouse Mtn.'s electrical needs. The tower is 200 feet high and will have an elevator and observation deck. Adding the spokes will give a 300 foot overall height.

Read this article where they say how they will light the Flame inside the Stadium and still have it visible outside is a closely guarded secret.

No. Nobody went. Not one person showed up. Not one single person showed up so they closed the event early

what an inane question to ask. BC Place's roof is far more of a risk
