This are images showcasing all the areas where the new Olympics stadium is built. As you can see, this is the main shape of the area where the stadium was taking shape from the start of 2006, the mid process of the transformation and the complete project. CRITICAL SHORT ANALIYSIS, SOCIAL CHANGE IN STRATFORD
Social life of youth these days mainly revolve around the internet, social media mainly e.g facebook and twitter. Social media is not entirely something bad but in recent times it has been used for bullying and threats. Which is why having the Olympic was a good distraction, it gives them something to keep busy as a lot of youth in stratford participated to make the games go smoothly, the pay might not have been a lot but the experience is priceless. Which will help propelled them to the next face of their individual life and encourages them becoming a better citizen.

In terms of transportation it might have been difficult for locals especially those that have to be at work to move around because a lot of people will be travelling to the games, this also depends on what time the game is holding and what part of the stratford city as a whole has to offer the world In terms of hospitality. Although is good for business of the transportation company.
Sporting venues have been renovated or built from scratch, providing world-class facilities for the Games and for the long-term benefit of local communities and the elite athletes. They also become tourist attraction which could also generate revenue for the community. But before the games many locals fear they will loose their homes and properties which brought many of them to a complete state of mind,( the fear of change) they welcome the Olympics but they suddenly realised some of them will be losing their homes or being relocated from stratford. Perhaps we can argue that some welcomed it while some don’t but in general we can say all the new changes in stratford today, the income from the new multi million pound buildings sales of the Olympic village and the media sales they all goes to the government. Furthermore we can argue that the new upper class people who migrated into stratford gets the real benefits of the new infrastructure, the new stratford in general terms. While the real east end indigen get kicked further down the living standard in stratford.
The Olympics has done a great deal of good for everyone in stratford that took part in the games, it has brought about awareness to the eastend city which will help tourist have a better understanding of a particular part of London which is stratford as a city and, prior to the Olympics Stratford east end might have not been heard before but since then the Olympic. it has brought attention to the borough ,the eastend locals and now the new migrant people moving in to live in newham borough. Now they all have one thing in common, which is they know they now exist and can easily research them to find out tourist attractions in the stratford city. Also Tourism brings a lot of money to the local authority and the local shops in Stratford city, and also during the games a lot of the locals would have benefited from the job creations that come with the new Stratford. Especially the housing sectors e.g. the house owners, Also from Westfield shopping centre, Transportation sectors and private sector Company, B&B owners.
The Olympic also affected the life of youths in a good way, it encourages them to get involved with sports and athletics and also exercise which can also be used to tackle obesity in newham borough .Also is a life time achievement for the government and parent, knowing fully well that the youth most of them they might be competing in the next Olympic and representing the country proudly.
