Perched incongruously on the 44th floor of one of Milan\u0027s modern glass skyscrapers is a ski lodge.
The organizing committee has admitted there have been delays because of the coronavirus pandemic and rising costs due in part to the war in Ukraine, but Olympic Games executive director Christophe Dubi said there is nothing to be concerned about.
One of the key features of Milan-Cortina’s winning bid in 2019 was the use of existing structures. That included the San Siro for the opening ceremony. “We know that there are a number of adjustments that are made to the stadium which will be ready for the games.”There are also issues surrounding some of the facilities that need to be built. Plans to hold speedskating at Baselga di Pine have been scrapped after authorities deemed the project too expensive. Milan has offered to host it at Fiera exhibition center, while another option could be the existing indoor oval built for the 2006 Turin Olympics.
It will be the first time Italy has hosted the Olympics since 2006. But with an ever-dwindling pool of countries that can feasibly hold a Winter Olympics because of climate change, Dubi said the IOC is considering the option of rotating hosts and heralded “a new era” of the Olympics in “using what already exists.”
