I certainly agree that the London bid has given more thought to long

Possibly from the Manchester example. The City of Manchester stadium,
for one, is now used for football and live music, while the Manchester
Aquatics Centre (which I tended to "lovingly" know as Oxford Road
Baths) still seems very much in use, though admittedly it is looking a
bit tatty now with a number of boarded windows.
