About that, what
efforts are required in the transformation of the Olympic Centre of the poor,
backward and depressed Stratford area of London, more summarily and figures tell the
details.
Here are some. When
clearing an area of 2.5 square kilometers in Stratford east London - the same, which now
stretches Olympic Park - it was necessary to demolish the 220 commercial
buildings, houses and other facilities. With the overwhelming majority of those
who worked and lived on the future site of Olympic construction, relocation and
compensation was able to negotiate amicably. But there were those who stood up
to the last: among them - co-op garden plots and the oldest in London factory
for smoked salmon. To move them from their homes, in 2007, had a warrant to use
force to acquire land.
