Philadelphia Interested In 2024 Olympics

Philadelphia Interested In 2024 Olympics

Philadelphia Real Estate

Last year I wrote a post about how Philadelphia would be the perfect city to host the 2024 Olympics.  Yesterday Mayor Nutter told the U.S. Olympic Committee (USOC) that Philadelphia and the surrounding region embraces the idea of bidding for and eventually hosting the 2024 Olympics.

“I am honored to confirm our wholehearted commitment and interest in working with the USOC to bid on the 2024 Games…Philadelphia, the birthplace of democracy, is a city founded on faith tolerance and brotherly love – values which are wholly consistent with the spirit of the Olympics.”

Philadelphia was invited, as one of the 25 largest cities in the US, to submit an Olympic bid for 2024 and now the USCO will first decide on the finalists and later the host city.  Philadelphia was one of the five finalists that presented in 2006 for the 2016 games which were ultimately awarded to Rio de Janeio.
