It's a shame those beautiful facilities went to waste. One would think that they would be used for other world class events. About Atlanta, I know someone who worked sports medicine for the Olympics there. He said instead of building new facilities from scratch, they up-graded existing facilities. In the case of those that needed to built new, such as the stadium, they had a plan for continued use. Lexington, KY was host to World Equestrian Games while I was still working there. One permanent structure was built, a new larger, arena. It replaced the old one. The rest of the facilities were temporary.
