Beijing - The Olympic venue for swimming disciplines in Beijing, China, known as the Water Cube, will gradually be transformed into offices and a water-themed amusement park. This was announced today by Reuters.
    The architecturally striking building has so far remained virtually unchanged since last August when it hosted the Olympic swimming, diving, and synchronized swimming competitions. However, the renovation is set to begin within a few months.
    11,000 temporary spectator seats have already been removed from the venue, and now developers will tear down a portion of the remaining 6,000 seats to make way for offices, both for park management and for rent to companies.
    The rest of the complex will feature the largest amusement park in Beijing, which will include, among other attractions, a fake beach with waves. Select swimming clubs will be located in the northern and western wings.
