The Paris Olympics committee has recently announced that they are reducing the design of the proposed Tahiti Surf Tower following local criticism. The tower, which was set to be built in the French Polynesian capital of Papeete, was originally planned to be a large, iconic structure that would have been visible from the city’s waterfront.
However, the design of the tower has been met with criticism from local residents and environmental groups who argued that it would be an eyesore and would disrupt the natural beauty of the area. The committee has now decided to reduce the size of the tower and make it less visible from the waterfront.
The Tahiti Surf Tower was originally proposed as part of the Paris Olympics bid to host the 2024 Summer Games. It was intended to be a symbol of the city’s commitment to sustainability and to showcase the region’s unique culture and environment. The tower was set to be constructed using sustainable materials and was designed to be a “green” building that would generate its own energy.
The committee has now decided to reduce the size of the tower and make it less visible from the waterfront. This is in response to concerns raised by local residents and environmental groups who argued that the tower would disrupt the natural beauty of the area. The revised design will still feature sustainable materials and will still generate its own energy, but it will be smaller and less visible from the waterfront.
The Paris Olympics committee has made it clear that they are committed to ensuring that their plans for the 2024 Summer Games are respectful of local culture and environment. The decision to reduce the size of the Tahiti Surf Tower is a testament to this commitment and shows that they are willing to listen to local criticism and make changes accordingly. This is a positive step forward for the Paris Olympics bid and should help to ensure that the Games are a success.
