The maps exemplify the transformation of the Olympic and Paralympic Village from its state in 2000 to its current configuration.
A significant evolution is evident in the layout and functionality of the village, marked by the introduction of new facilities and the reorganization of existing structures.
In the year 2000, the Olympic and Paralympic Village featured a predominantly curvilinear road layout with a series of designated buildings, including a car park, leisure centre, water centre, fitness centre, and two athlete accommodation blocks. The car park located in the western corner was relatively compact, equipped with designated entry and exit points. Adjacent to this was a welcome centre, while to the northwest lay the fitness centre and an unoccupied building directly across from it. The eastern section of the village housed two athlete accommodation buildings oriented at a 45-degree angle to the main road, while another limited-capacity car park occupied the southeast corner.
In contrast, the present-day map delineates a more structured grid pattern, showcasing a significant reconfiguration of the site. The car park in the western area has been expanded, accompanying a new media centre, while the fitness centre has undergone enhancements. Directly opposite, a welcome centre and a village square have been established. Additionally, two new athlete accommodation buildings have been constructed facing the original accommodations, augmenting the living quarters for athletes. The former southeast car park has been transformed into a multi-faith centre. Notably, one of the original accommodation buildings has been repurposed to cater to disabled athletes, and a new road now traverses the centrally located area, connecting the west car park with the disabled athlete accommodation.
