    1.1 INTRODUCTION

    Boston is a city that has never been afraid to think

    big. We are internationally-recognized thoughtleaders, educators and innovators. From the

    establishment of the countrys rst public school to

    our global cluster of biomedicine and technology,

    we have redened the boundaries of possibility.

    Boston is home to more than 100 universities

    and 75 hospitals, but our passion for progress

    extends beyond the walls of these institutions. The

    citys unwavering dedication to the pursuit of the

    possible is nowhere better expressed than in its

    love of sport.

    Boston is a sport city like no other. We root loyallyfor our professional sports teams, support our

    collegiate athletic programs, cheer our children on

    in youth sports and participate in club sports for

    athletes of all ages and abilities. Bostons inclusive

    sports culture connects us, creating welcoming and

    close-knit communities.

    It is only natural that a city that thinks so big and

    loves sport so much would be wholeheartedly

    committed to hosting the Olympic Games. The

    2024 Olympic Games are Bostons Olympic dream. A

    dream we are deeply dedicated to achieving.

    This bid book demonstrates not only our strong

    desire to host the 2024 Olympic Games, but also

    our absolute technical ability to do so. We have

    provided comprehensive feasibility studies for all

    proposed competition venues. We have established

    the immense popularity of Olympic sports within

    our region, and we have highlighted our extensive

    experience hosting national and international

    sporting events in our city.

    We will deliver an Olympic Games that is compact

    and walkable. We have planned our distributionof venues to complement Bostons robust public

    transportation system. Of our 33 proposed venues,

    28 will be located within 10km of the Athletes

    Village and within walking distance of public

    transportation. The Games will offer a unique

    opportunity to advance planned infrastructure

    improvements, increasing capacity and access

    across the region.

    The Boston 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games

    master plan prioritizes affordability. We have workedtirelessly to secure the support of both public and

    private partners to deliver extraordinary venues

    for the Games. Our strategy looks to public entities

    to support improvements to public infrastructure,

    such as roads and public transportation, and the

    universities to partner in the development of new

    venues and overlay of existing venues.

    The Games will provide positive and long-lasting

    social and environmental benets to communities

    across the region. By partnering with a number of

    local universities, we will be able to provide our

    world-class educational facilities with world-classathletic facilities following the Games. We have

    located several venues in neighborhoods where

    they can be transitioned to community uses, such

    as health and recreation centers. Other venues will

    be directed towards development following the

    Games, creating new economic opportunities for our

    communities. And as part of our legacy planning,

    improvements will be made to both the natural

    and built environment surrounding proposed venue

    sites, including the addition of sidewalks, street

    trees, parks and other public spaces.

    In the following pages, we conrm the feasibility

    of our master plan by proving our ability to meet

    the necessary requirements for the eld of play and

    support facilities for operations at all competition

    venues. Our detailed venue plans represent our

    deep commitment to deliver a compact, affordable

    and sustainable Games for all.

    We hope that you will join us in this innovative

    vision for the Boston 2024 Olympic Games. A Games

    that will celebrate Bostons role as a global leader

    in education, innovation, sustainability and sport.

    A Games that will inspire our youth and speak toour legacy. A Games that will foster international

    understanding and community. A Games that will

    protect and advance the precious Olympic brand.

    Sport Popularity

    How popular is each sport in the city/region?

    The City of Boston provides a depth of knowledge

    and history in athletics nearly unrivaled across the

    country. With historic universities and professional

    teams, the community inherits a passion and

    commitment to participation in sports from

    many generations of engagement. From longest-

    run competitions to the birthplace of sport to

    revered historic stadiums, the spirit for athletic

    participation within the region reaches from our

    families to the elds.

    Professional and master level sporting events

    have long been a tradition in Boston. The oldest

    collegiate athletic competition was established

    in rowing between Harvard and Yale. One of the

    longest-held American football games exists

    between the two as well Harvard Stadium itself

    is responsible for dening the eld dimensionsfor the sport. The Boston Marathon is the oldest

    annually-run marathon in the world. The birthplace

    of basketball hosts the Basketball Hall of Fame in

    Springeld, the only sporting Hall of Fame in the

    country to include international athletes. And the

    oldest baseball stadium in the country boasts the

    longest running sell-out attendance on record. With

    34 professional championships 8 in the current

    century alone Bostons participation in sport has

    generations of legacy.

    The Olympics are extremely popular in the United

    States with an estimated 219.4 million viewers

    watching the London 2012 Games, it became the

    most-watched television event in American history.

    Delayed and extended coverage allowed viewers

    the opportunity to experience unfamiliar events.

    These events have large international interest

    and many of their advocates have developed their

    sport in Boston through university or community

    programs. And while events such as the Head of

    the Charles Regatta and the Boston Marathon draw

    crowds of 400,000 to 500,000 annually, established

    programs from high school to community clubs are

    giving rise to national championships in archery,

    badminton, taekwondo, fencing and more all held

    in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

    Events like the Boston Marathon dene the

    character of Bostons appreciation for athletics.

    Support can be seen by the number of clubs

    surrounding a sport, and the popularity of a

    sport can be experienced by the passion of itsadvocates, the engagement of the athletes and the

    participation of its community. The passion inherent

    in the community programs of Boston will intensify

    the spirit of the Games, a spirit that will engage and

    inspire a global community with the same passion.

    Refer to the next page for an information graphic

    describing the participation in sports from the

    professional level to amateur and youth programs.
