One of the signature venues of the 2010 Winter Games is in the Riley Park neighbourhood near scenic Queen Elizabeth Park. The spectacular Vancouver Olympic Centre/Vancouver Paralympic Centre will be the home of competition curling events.
After 2010, the venue will be converted to a legacy community facility for the residents of Vancouver. It will boast a new community centre, ice rink, curling club, library, preschool, field house and offices. Being built at the same time and attached to the curling venue is a new destination aquatic centre with indoor and outdoor pools.
The Vancouver Olympic Centre/Vancouver Paralympic Centre is a barrier-free venue for spectators and athletes. Once complete, the entire complex will be a fully accessible legacy facility.
It seats 6,000 during the Olympics.
