It's been almost three years since the Olympics have left Athens, and while there has been a constant buzz on how to further develop the coastal area of Neo Faliron in the city; bickering and arguing has led to nothing being accomplished.  Olympic Properties, a government firm responsible for the management of Olympic Games venues, has said that it will go it alone in the development of a stretch of seafront in Neo Faliron, southern Athens, after talks broke down with the Moschato municipality.

 

The plans include redeveloping about 28 hectares of land between the former volleyball courts used for the Olympics and the Peace and Friendship stadium. The 28 hectares are claimed by both the Olympic Properties firm as well as the Moschato municipality.  Olympic properties has said they would like to add a park, and a sporting complex amongst other things. (We are sure housing will be included as well.) But as of yet, no one has determined who will pay for the development, and when it will begin.
