Rio's Olympic Venues Mostly Abandoned 7 Months After Games

RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL - MARCH 13: A general view of the abandoned Athlete's Village on March 13, 2017 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Seven months after the Rio hosted the first Olympic games in South America, many of the costly venue sites have been mostly abandoned in spite of promises from organizers that the games would provide a legacy benefit for the citizens of Brazil. The country remains in a deep economic and political crisis following the games. Critics believe the money spent on the games could have been better spent on developing infrastructure in the country.
