The $10-million Olympic Storage Shed


The pre-fab tent was built by a company from Chicago for $10-million.

Vancouver architect Bing Thom :
"We listened to too much advice from the Americans. There was all this talk about not being worried about the architecture."
.
Out here this style of architecture is usually called a Vancouver Special.
.
Last Wednesday Canadian Heritage Minister James Moore said the pre-fabricated structure will be the public face of Canada's $1.23-billion involvement in the Olympics.
