Main Olympic stadium to be ready before opening ceremony
Construction work at the main Olympic sports complex in Athens is set to be finished only a day before the opening ceremony on August 13, said its architect Santiago Calatrava. The Spaniard insisted that work at the complex was on schedule despite
delays. The most difficult part of the project, a steel-and-glass roof for the
main stadium, was completed on June 4. But Greek officials had promised to deliver the US$489 million stadium
complex to organizers in mid-July. "The works are expensive, but they are worth it and they will remain," Caltrava said. |
