Multimedia VIDEO: Atlanta's Olympic legacy
Posted by Max Blau @maxblau on Tue, Jul 24, 2012 at 1:25 PM
When Atlanta was awarded the Olympics 22 years ago, it was forever changed. For better or worse is still being debated. In this week's cover story, we spoke with the different individuals involved in the creation of the 1996 Olympics who shared their views on the games' lasting legacy. Along the way, we explored several of the Olympic venues - including Lake Lanier and Stone Mountain Tennis Stadium - and spent time in Centennial Olympic Park, Atlanta History Center and others places associated with the 1996 Olympic games.
