Even if you was one of the lucky ones to even buy a ticket that got you inside Olympic Park, the huge big scrrens could possibly the best place to watch the games! Yes seeing it live it great, taking in all the experience but sitting on your sofa at home is the front row seats and the best seats you could ever get.

The ArcelorMittal Orbit is a 115-metre-high (377 ft)

sculpture and observation tower in the Olympic Park

in Stratford, London. It is Britain’s largest piece of

public art, and is intended to be a permanent lasting

legacy of London’s hosting of the 2012 Summer Olym-

pics, assisting in the post-Olympics regeneration of

the Stratford area. Sited between the Olympic Stadium

and the Aquatics Centre, it allows visitors to view the

whole Olympic Park from two observation platforms.

Orbit was designed by Anish Kapoor and Cecil Bal-

mond of engineering Group Arup. Announced on

31 March 2010, it was expected to be completed by

December 2011. The project came about after Mayor

of London Boris Johnson and Olympics Minister Tessa

Jowell decided in 2008 that the Olympic Park needed

“something extra”. Designers were asked for ideas for

an “Olympic tower” at least 100 metres (330 ft) high,

and Orbit was the unanimous choice from proposals

considered by a nine-person advisory panel.

The project was expected to cost £19.1 million, with £16 million coming from Britain’s richest man, the steel tycoon Lakshmi Mittal, Chairman of the Arcelor-Mittal steel company, and the balance of £3.1 mil-lion coming from the London Development Agency. The name “ArcelorMittal Orbit” combines the name of Mittal’s company, as chief sponsor, with “Orbit”, the original working title for Kapoor and Balmond’s design.Kapoor and Balmond believe that Orbit represents a radical advance in the architectural field of combin-ing sculpture and structural engineering, and that it combines both stability and instability in a work that visitors can engage with and experience via an incor-porated spiral walkway. It has been both praised and criticised for its bold design. It has also been criticised as a vanity project, of questionable lasting use or merit as a public art project.
