 The Georgia Dome
Since 1994, the Georgia Dome has been the home to the Atlanta Falcons
football team. It is located in the center of the Olympic Ring in beautiful
downtown Atlanta. Hosting events, such as Super Bowl XXVIII and
the Peach Bowl, the Dome will also be the home of three Olympic events:
artistic gymnastics (7/20-7/25,7/28-7/30), basketball (7/20-8/4), and the
final of men's team handball (8/4). In order to house these three events
the indoor stadium will be divided into two segments, one containing a
court like surface, the other a more gymnastic like surface.
The Dome,
being the largest cable-supported domed stadium in the world, is owned
by the state of Georgia and managed by the Georgia World Congress Center
Authority. Being such an enormous structure it will be able to seat 35,400
people in each of the three events. Since Parking is an important aspect
of The Games, the Dome is well equipped with 17,000 parking spaces within
walking distance. These include spaces for cars and buses, alike. Its location
and size make it an easily located landmark in Atlanta. |
