Infastructure Left Over from the 2009 Taipei Deaflympics

Deaflympic 400 m Mens', originally uploaded by Patrick Cowsill.

Taipei built this stadium for the 2009 Deaflympics. The city and the country wrangled over who would pick up the tab, with, I think, the city losing. I took this shot from the roof of the building I work in. There is an almost Olympic-sized pool next to the stadium that was also built for the show.

BTW, this was the semis for one event, either the hurdles or 400 meter dash. I can't remember.
