By Lauren Dezenski Reporter Staff Last week, two polls showed public support for the 2024 Games had barely increased. The US Olympic Committee (USOC) has made it clear that it wants to see public support pick up “relatively soon.” “We’re going to continue to get our message out,” Davey told the Reporter on Tuesday when asked how the group would proceed. “We have work to do in that regard. The IOC vote is still two years away and the Games are nine years away. When people see the details and thoughtfulness of it, like the expanded green space, people will be on board. This is more than sound bytes.” As the public takes time to chew on the latest blueprint to host the Summer Games, known as “Bid 2.0,” there are signs that civic leaders and elected officials on Columbia Point are on board for one piece of the bid, specifically a fix for Kosciuszko Circle. “From a conceptual perspective, the neighbor- hood and the electeds are pleased that [Boston JFK-UMass station from above, at right, and from Columbia Road, below. 2024] is taking this on,” Davey said. “Since the Boston 2024 and Reporter file photos bid was released, we have met with MassDOT to discuss traffic, some of the costing, and what it will ultimately look like. We have some work to do.” The Massachusetts Affordable Housing Alli- ance, in an op-ed published in the Reporter last week, called the plans for housing carved out from the Athletes Village disappointing, citing low levels of affordable housing set-asides – roughly half of what New York City projected from its failed Olympic bid. “We were careful to say in our plan that we were proposing a minimum of 13 percent of affordable housing,” Davey told the Reporter. “There’s obviously a policy goal that we all want to achieve, which is to create more affordable housing in Boston. If we can find a way to increase the affordable units at Columbia Point and Widett Circle, we absolutely will. Our goal is to put out a very credible financial plan to show that it can be done.”
