In 2008, for the first time in China, the Olympic games will take place. Already, the Olympic stadiums, plazas and other building are under construction and they should be done sometime in like 2007. The new stadiums look kind of overly futuristic and I think China is reviewing these 'strange' designs. But the Village looks modern and cool; I also hope these games would be better than the one at Athens.

LOL, the swimming hall the last time I saw the rendering (your pics didn't load) it looked like an ice slab with some bubbles in it, interesting architecture!
