MissEurasia Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 Dear all, I am looking for the IOC Evaluation Report for the 2002 Cities. Does anyone have it? Furthermore, I have got a question regarding the Beijing 2000 Bid Books. I have them and its just three books in a plain box. Was that really all? I can imagine that they came along with something more or is this set really a "classic" one (three books only)? Hmmm.... Well, Puppy did upload their Bid Summary, it did look plain even though it was scanned black and white, you can see they used poor binding on the summary like Berlin did with their bid books, All the other candidates (Including Milan not Brasilia & Tashkent) produced a 3 Volume Bid Book Set, so I think Beijing did the same, I hope thias helps, as for the 2002 Evaluation Report, I will try and look for it, maybe ask Puppy and see if he has anything.

MissEurasia Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 Heres something that talks about the four candidates (Salt Lake City, Quebec City, Ostersund & Sion) http://library.la84.org/OlympicInformationCenter/OlympicReview/1995/oreXXV1/oreXXV1e.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tominger Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 Thanks Miss!! Well, they are not so plain, but quite detailed. The second Volume is similar to that what Atlanta 1996 did, also Istanbul 2000 looked similar (maybe because Hirthler was in charge for Istanbul 2000, too).

mr.bernham Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 The 2 C's: Coke and Calgary. True, and don't for get Montreal which kind of hurt them. Still the US had LA and Lake Placid in the same decade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still the US had LA and Lake Placid in the same decade.Both LA and Lake Placid were the only bidders for their years. One could argue that perhaps Atlanta might have been a thank you to USA for saving the IOC's bacon not once but twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not born yesterday I know that many people think Atlanta was a thank you, it was an expression. I was saying that Toronto had a better plan and probably would have hosted much better than Atlanta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
