1. Motivation and Legacy of the Games
To develop this comprehensive plan for NYC to host the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic
Games, the New York Olympic Organizing Committee (NYOOC) looked into the deep well of
New York’s creativity. We addressed the needs of the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games and
the Olympic Movement through our comprehensive plan. Today’s New York City is home
pulsing residents, sports and recreation; restaurants, and art and culture. New York is home to
five spectacular boroughs, all uniting as one to make New York City something special.
How to capture the essence of NYC? It is not bricks and mortar. It is a city in constant
ferment and reinvention. It is forever new, forever exciting, and forever glamorous — always
embracing innovation, technology, creativity, and growth. More than 200 languages are spoken
and every community is present. People are born here and more people arrive, émigrés and
immigrants, all imbued with optimism and knowing that anything is possible. It is a city of
dreams. The city has always been characterized by its beautiful skyline, and thriving green parks.
The NYC2028 bid builds on these unique traits, creating a plan that continues and accelerates
this evolution. New York City is the essence of America as the land of opportunity. In New York
City, every athlete will win.
We look to host the Olympic Games from July 28th to August 13th. We chose these dates
because this is when the traffic in NYC is at the lowest point of the year and there are less people
in the city. New York City is a sports town, home of two MLS teams, two NBA teams, two NFL
teams, two MLB teams, three NHL teams, and home to one of the grand slams of tennis. The
United States has earned 2,400 medals at the Summer Olympic Games. Even though NYC has
never hosted an Olympic Games, Lake Placid, NY has hosted two successful Winter Olympics.
2. Venue Plan
Our venue plan will create a spectacular experience for athletes, visitors, New Yorkers,
and the Olympic family. We utilized the many landmarks that New York has to offer, such as,
Central Park, the skyline, and the harbor. Clusters include the Olympic Park in Queens, Flushing
Meadows Park in Queens, Riverfront cluster in the Bronx and northern Manhattan, and the
Central cluster in Manhattan. We envision the athlete’s village on the shore of the East River,
offering captivating views of Manhattan.

When New York City hosts the Olympics in 2028, the Olympic Village will be along the banks of
the East River. This venue will create draw dropping views of the skyline. Currently this piece of land are
parking lots and abandoned warehouses. Using its location, athletes will be able to use high speed
ferries to go to venue to venue, or travel across the Queens- Boro Bridge into Manhattan to experience
New York culture. Around the corner from the village is a subway station that can take them to
Manhattan or across Queens. Welcome ceremonies will take place prior to the opening ceremony to
make every athlete welcome. The village also offers live sites so athletes can cheer on fellow athletes as
they compete. The village offers world-class training facilities, shops, and lounges. After the games, the
village offers affordable housing for generations of New Yorker’s and for communities to thrive around
it.
3. Politics and Finance
The United States of America is a republic with a president and a legislative branch. Within the
legislative are two houses of Congress. The next presidential election is in 2016. The president elected
then will not be president in 2028 due to two four year terms. The next congressional election will be in
2018. The majority of the government see the Olympics as a profitable situation, when new figures
come in, it is unlikely this will change. Since New York’s plan is to use only private investments, political
and public support is high for the games in NYC. Currently, the GDP of the US is $17.7 trillion, first in the
world. New York City is the financial center of the United States, last year the city made a GMP of 1.55
trillion dollars.
4. Weather During the Games
The average temperature in New York City during the July to August corridor is around 78 degrees
Fahrenheit and 25.6 Celsius. The average precipitation during this time is 3.9 inches. The average wind
speed is 10.68 mph.
5. Public Transportation
For the majority of international visitors and athletes, the NYC2028 experience will start at either the
JFK, LaGuardia airport, or Newark airport. Today NYC’s Subway system operates 34 physical rail lines,
with 5,465,034 average weekday commuters. The number 7 line is currently being extended to the west
side of Manhattan, this is the largest extension of a subway line in NYC in over 50 years. The subway
covers over 656 miles in New York. Complemented by Amtrak’s intercity services, rail travel across New
York City, the North East, and beyond will be convenient and accessible. Finally, New York is home to
13,605 famous yellow and black taxi cabs, 7,990 of which are hybrid vehicles. Buses are also available fo
people who wish to. The newest member of the NYC Transportation system are the Citi Bikes. Bike
specific lanes were designed for these. Ferries are a very accessible way to get around NYC. Staten Island
Ferry and the Water Taxi are among the most convenient.

6. Accommodation
From The Plaza to the Ritz Carlton, NYC is home to some of the most beautiful hotels in the world
including The Plaza. In 2013, the hotel occupancy was 88%. There a total of 248 hotels in NYC. 32,000
people are working in these 70,000 hotel rooms. Totally there are 114 hotels in Midtown area. There are
75 in Times Square area and 39 in Midtown East Side. In the Olympic Park, the media apartments will be
located there. We designed the media apartments so that it could also be used as an observation deck
for visitors. The observation deck will offer captivating views of the most famous skyline in the world.
These apartments will offer quick excess to the subway and the ferry to get around the city. Athletes will
also use ferries to get around the city considering the majority of venues are in close proximity to the
water
7. Ticketing, Marketing, and Ceremonies
For spectators, an app will be created so that ticketholders can purchase tickets on their phones and
show the code when they get to the stadium. Spectators will also be able to buy tickets at the stadiums,
online, and located places around the city as usual. New York City plans on promoting nation and world-
wide. Including inspiring commercials, billboards, and a torch relay reaching Hawaii for the first time. We
also plan to have the torch stop in Mexico City and Montreal. NYC’s slogan is to ‘Dream Big’. Within
New York are big buildings, big parks, and bug sports fans. As for ceremonies, we plan on tackling the
culture in many different ways.
Opening Ceremony:
Colonialism in NY
American Revolution
Industrial Revolution
American dream starting in New York
WW2 moment of silence
Civil Rights movement
9/11 tribute
Cauldron rises out of the ground
For the closing ceremony, we plan on going on
a journey through American music starting from
Frank Sinatra with “New York, New York”. With
Michael Jackson and multiple performances
Involving 80s rock. Now to present times,
Beyoncé and Jay-Z will be preforming. Others
Include Rhianna, Katy Perry, Maroon 5, Alicia
Keys, and others.
8. An Amazing Games in an Amazing City
New York City is a world-class city. New York offers the Olympics a second home. A home where every
athlete will find a neighborhood to call home. Home to the United Nations, New York offers something
that no other city can offer. When the games take place in New York, very neighborhood will have home
field advantage, there will be no strangers, and NYC will be in an Olympic state of mind. When athletes
compete in New York in 2028, they will run faster, jump higher, and throw stronger.
