"The proposed site of the Olympic Village is Queens West, across the East River from the United Nations. With the goal of enhancing the athlete-experience, the winning design incorporates all Olympic Village criteria outlined by the International Olympic Committee's (IOC) guidelines. It features a long, sinuous ribbon of primarily low-rise buildings that skirt the waterfront and have beautiful views of the Manhattan skyline, dramatically reducing the number of high-rise residences outlined in the original Village concept from 10 to 4."
