This laid out plans for 10,000 homes, commercial developments that will create 10,000 jobs, and using the stadium as a school. www.building.co.uk The 2012 Summer Olympic Games will be held in London from 27 July to 12 August 2012, followed by the 2012 Paralympic Games from 29 August to 9 September. |
