Los Angeles Guy Posted February 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 The website is very hard to navigate through and takes a VERY long time to load. Have you tried Google images? I usually have good luck there when looking for venues of certain Olympiads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xu Wen-Ting Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 By now haven't found newest picture of the Nest, this is the picture of before Nest reconstruction. It's also said that The Nest has about 100,000 seats.20,000 seats will cut after 2008 Olympic Games. That's the first seats plan for the nest. But now,the seats will be cut to 91,000 for safe problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guardian Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 It seems, according to the BBC, some IOC inspectors toured the on-going construction of a couple of venues for Beijing 2008. However, also with it, it is claimed that BOCOG is still going "too fast" on its preparations for these upcoming Games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
