| S.F. makes Olympics bid "semi" finals! |
[Jul. 26th, 2006|01:07 pm] |
San Francisco is one of three finalists for the United States Olympic Committee's potential bid for the 2016 Summer Olympics.
SF is joined by Chicago and Los Angeles. Houston and Philadelphia have been eliminated from contention.
Personally, I'd love to see a 2016 games in SF. I think it'd be an excellent opportunity for us to encourage new economic and residential development, and I think it'd get folks excited about SF at a time when there seems to be a lot bogged down in the intra-politics of things lately. But I don't know that that's necessarily possible here.
Anyone have other thoughts on this? |
