These sports facilities are located in two basic sectors: sectors: the Heritage Zone ，which includes the National Stadium as the main Olympic Olympic facility ，and the Tokyo Bay Zone for swimming events ，etc. Di旺 ering from initial plans ， venues have been separated into various locations locations outside of Tokyo for a number of sports ， with wrestling ，fencing ，and taekwondo to be held at the Makuhari Messe in Chiba. basketball to be held at the the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama City ，sailing to be held at Enoshima Yacht Harbor in Fujisawa ，Kanagawa ，cycling (仕 ack) to be held at the Izu Velodrome in in Izu ，Shizuoka ，cycling (mountain bike) to be held at the Izu Mountain Bike Course Course in Izu ，Shizuoka ，etc. As a resul t. this plan somewhat diverges from the initial concept of a Compact Venue Plan ， but separating the venues in this manner allows for the utilization utilization of existing facilities ， which will significantly reduce financial costs ， avoid avoid the ill effects of concentrating numerous sports facilities in a single area ， 叩 d create an “ Olympic legacy" to last long after the Games have ended ， making the facilities popular among local citizens. As of August 2016 ， plans for facility positioning are as follows : • Heritage Zone ational N ational Stadium (opening/ closing ceremonies ， track & field ，footbal I) ，Tokyo Metropolitan Metropolitan Gymnasium (table tennis) ，Yoyo gI National Stadium (hand- bal I)， Nippon Budokan (judo) ，Imperial Palace Garden (cycling ， road racing) ， Tokyo International Forum Cweightlifting) ， Ryogoku Kokugikan (or Ryogoku Sumo Ha l!)

As seen above in the Tokyo Bay Zone description ， rnany facilities in 也at 訂 ea for Olyrnpic events are newly established ， and this will rnost likely spur on new developrnent of Tokyo's public transportation systern throughout the coastal coastal area ， such as the subway systern ， which 1 will cover later in detai l. In 加 rn ， Tokyo's urban structure rnay change significantly because of this. The following paragraphs provide a detailed look at construction plans for the the rnain facilities among thern ， along with a look at the current situation. (2) (2) National Stadium In In July 2012 ， the Japanese Olyrnpic Cornrnittee (headed by Japanese architect architect Tadao Ando) awarded Zaha Hadid first prize for her National Stadiurn Stadiurn design proposal. Since then ，there has been a great deal of controversy regarding regarding the decision. As seen in the photo ， the streamlined structure Zaha Hadid is known for gives 出is design a neo-futuristic appeal ， and resernbles an alien spacecraft hovering hovering above the outer gardens of Meiji Shrine ， with the skyscrapers of Shinjuku's Shinjuku's sub-center off in the distance. When the selection was rnade ，Tokyo was still competing with other candidate cities for the 2020 Surnmer Olympic Games ，and 由is particul 紅白sign was seen as a powerful statement of Tokyo's enthusiasm enthusiasm for the Olympics. Urban Structure for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics 43 Figure Figure 2: Zaha Hadid ' s design proposal for Japan' s National Olympic Stadium Stadium (provided by the Japan Sports Council) Various Various arguments against this design were expressed ， with the two main ones ones being: 1) it was not a good fit with the history and tradition associated with the the outer gardens of Meiji Shrine ， and 2) it was much too cost ly from an economic economic standpoin t. In July 2013 ，a certain design company reported a tota l construction construction cost for th is design of 346 .2 billion yen (roug hly 3.3 billion US dollars ) to the JOC ， which made costs the biggest point of contention and l ed to objections objections regarding Tokyo's share of costs The governor of Tokyo at that time ， Governor Yoichi Masuzoe (who later resigned) ， suddenly ca lled a meeting with the Minister of Education ，Culture ， Sports ， Science and Technology at the Metropo li tan Government Office ， to thoroughly thoroughly question him on cost allocation issues for the new Nationa lStadium ， and and the controversy further int ensified The role of a governor when dealing with an Olymp ic faci li ty construction situation situation such as this has tradit ional ly been to demonstrate leadership as t he hosting hosting city's chief representative ， to work toward a successfu l. well-balanced resul t. The controversy should have been dealt with by first figuring out how to deal deal with costs once Zaha's design was se lected ， and if too costly ，finding ways to to reduce expenses. But instead ，a dramatic conflict between Tokyo 's governor and and the Minister of Education

  • DOSSIER DE PRESSE J-100 Nous Y Sommes !
    DOSSIER DE PRESSE J-100 Nous y sommes ! Attendu, repoussé, espéré, le traditionnel J-100 de l’équipe de France avant les Jeux Olympiques est enfin là, signifiant à tous que Tokyo 2020 se dessine enfin. La tenue des com- pétitions olympiques est aujourd’hui confirmée. L’an passé, le Comité international olympique, le Comité international paralympique et le Comité d’organisation s’étaient résignés à reporter l’ouverture des Jeux Olympiques et Paralympiques de Tokyo d’une année. Cette décision, É inédite, avait figé la Flamme olympique à Fukushima et mis en suspens tout le mouvement olympique - à commencer par les athlètes - dans l’attente d’une réponse scientifique au virus, avec l’espoir que les Jeux Olympiques incarnent le soleil levant sur une Humanité sortie de crise. La solution vaccinale a permis d’éclairer quelque peu l’horizon de Tokyo 2020 et les Jeux Olympiques et Paralympiques se tiendront bien, mais autrement. En effet, l’universalité des DI athlètes dans le stade ne se retrouvera pas dans les tribunes. Une expérience différente sera proposée aux délégations, contrainte en termes de déplacement et de contact avec le public ou les médias, afin de préserver la santé de tous. Après cinq ans d’attente et de préparation, dont une année d’incertitudes durant laquelle nombre de compétitions et de tournois de qualification olympiques ont été reportés, TO l’équipe de France sera au rendez-vous. Elle y arrivera motivée... Motivée par l’envie et l’énergie accumulées depuis un an de retenue. Motivée par une volonté commune de redonner du baume au cœur des Français.
