Paris stunned as London bid unveils stunning new Olympic Institute Park

Posted 12:33 pm ET

Plans for the London Olympic Institute included in London 2012’s candidature file and cited as a “significant legacy project” in the International Olympic Committee’s (IOC) Evaluation Commission report were outlined at a London media briefing Monday.

London 2012 organizers unveiled plans to create a fantastic centre for sports medicine, science, research and various sporting bodies in the Olympic Parks after the 2012 Summer Olympic Games.

The LOI will be located in the east London Olympic Park alongside the Olympic sporting venues, including a new Athletics Stadium and Indoor Sports Hall, a new Velopark, Aquatics Centre and Hockey facility already under development.

Sebastian Coe, head of London 2012, described the institute as an “exciting, dynamic and innovative” facility dedicated to advancing modern Olympic Games founder Pierre de Coubertin’s vision of building a better world through sport, culture, education, health and environment initiatives.

Among the organizations the institute would house is an Institute of Sport, which would serve as a new headquarters for the London region of the English Institute of Sport. The 2012 Sports and Exercise Medicine Centre and an Olympic Research Centre providing new opportunities for research, training and development across sport, culture, education, health and the environment, would also be based there.

The Olympic Institute is one of a number of major legacy projects linked to new sporting venues and facilities either planned or already under development in the proposed east London Olympic Park, which according to a media release is the largest new park in Europe in more than 150 years.
