Ke noi nei ʻo Chicago no nā Pāʻani 'Olumepika i ka makahiki 2016. ʻO ke kaona a me ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa e lilo i mea hoʻokipa no ka 2016 Summer Olympics ʻo ia ke kumuhana wela loa o ke kamaʻilio ʻana ma Illinois. Me ke kākoʻo ʻana o nā kūlanakauhale ʻē aʻe, nā kaona a me nā kauhale ma nā mokuʻāina ʻo Illinois, Indiana a me Wisconsin, ʻo Chicago kekahi o nā mea hope ʻehā i noʻonoʻo ʻia e ke Kōmike Olumepika International.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Bill Scherr, ka lālā o ka papa o Chicago 2016, Luna Hoʻokele o ka Sport, Chicago 2016 a me ka luna o ka World Sport Chicago, ua kokoke kokoke ʻo Chicago i ka laina hoʻopau me ke komite loiloi e kipa ana i ke kūlanakauhale ma Spring. "Ua hoʻouna mākou i kahi hōʻike nui i Iune i Switzerland. Ua hoʻomake mākou i kēlā mau lālā 107 IOC i nā hoʻokūkū koho balota no ka hanana. Hoʻopau kā mākou noi i ka lā 2 ʻOkakopa i kahi hālāwai kūkā kūikawā ma Copenhagen, Denmark me ka IOC kahi e hana ai mākou i kahi hōʻike me nā moho ʻē aʻe ʻekolu - Rio de Janeiro, Madrid, Tokyo, "i ʻōlelo ai ʻo ia, e kamaʻilio ana i ka 2nd Annual Midwest Lodging Investors Summit 2009.
Hoʻokūkū ʻo Rio a me Madrid me ko lākou mau kūlanakauhale nani. Hoʻokūkū ʻo Tokyo me kāna ʻenekini hoʻokele waiwai paʻa i loko o ke kūlanakauhale e hōʻike ana i kahi koho hoʻonohonoho maikaʻi loa. Koho ʻo Madrid i nā pāʻani 2012, akā i ka semi-finals e kūʻē iā Paris a me Lākana, ua lanakila ʻo Paris i ka semi-finals a ua hele ʻo Lākana i ka lua. Eia naʻe i ka hopena, ua hoʻololi ʻo Madrid i Lākana; ma hope ua lanakila ʻo Lākana iā Paris no ka hanana 2012.
Inā lilo ʻo Chicago i kūlanakauhale hoʻokipa, e hoʻopili ʻia ia i kahi ʻike no nā mea koho a pau e pili ana i nā mea pāʻani, ka ʻohana 'Olumepika, nā mākaʻikaʻi a me nā mea nānā kīwī, koe wale nō, ka poʻe o Chicago.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Scherr he ʻehā mau manaʻo kumu. ʻO ka mea mua, pono nā mea pāʻani ma ke kikowaena o nā pāʻani. E kūkulu ʻia kahi kauhale ʻOlumepika, kahi ʻoihana hou loa ma ke kikowaena o ke kūlanakauhale aia ma ka loko me kona kahakai ponoʻī. Kokoke ka poʻe ʻaleʻale i ka hoʻokūkū i hiki iā lākou ke komo i ke kahua haʻuki.
“E hoʻonoho ʻia nā pāʻani ma ke kikowaena o ke kūlanakauhale i hiki i ka ʻohana ʻOlumepika, nā mea nānā a me nā mea pāʻani ke hauʻoli i nā mea āpau a ke kūlanakauhale. E hoʻopuni mākou i nā pāʻani me kahi ʻahaʻaina a me kahi lewa o ka pilina i hiki ke launa nui ma waena o nā mea pā a me ke kūlanakauhale e kū nei i ka 'Olumepika, "wahi a Scherr.
E loaʻa i ke kahua pāʻani 'Olumepika he "ʻili ola" me ka waho holoʻokoʻa o ke kahua pāʻani e hoʻolaha ana i nā kiʻi mai loko o ke kahua pāʻani a mai nā wahi a puni o nā pāʻani. Ma waena o ke kahua pāʻani a me ka Pāka ʻo Wakinekona a me Jackson, e wehe ʻia ai nā wahi pānaʻi no nā keiki e hoʻāʻo ai i nā haʻuki hoʻoikaika kino, no ka poʻe e kālepa i nā pine, a me nā kiosk no nā poʻe e hoʻopili i ko lākou mau kaiāulu i ka home.
Ua manaʻo ʻia e hoʻonui ʻia nā pāʻani i $22.5B i ka loaʻa kālā no Chicago; hoʻokahi miliona mau malihini e manaʻo ʻia e hōʻea mai. ʻO ka waihona kālā no ke kauhale ʻOlumepika he $3.8B i nā loaʻa akā hiki ke piʻi nā kumukūʻai i $3.3B no ke kūkulu ʻana. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Scherr ua manaʻo lākou he $450M i ke koena no ka hoʻokipa ʻana - e like me ka hōʻike ʻana o Atlanta a me Salt Lake City i ka loaʻa kālā ma hope o ka unuhi ʻia ʻana o nā lilo no ka mālama ʻana i nā pāʻani. Ua ʻōlelo ka papa e manaʻo lākou e hoʻonui i ke kālā i hāʻawi ʻia e nā mea kākoʻo ma $1.248B, hoʻolaha i $1.01B, nā tiketi $705M, hāʻawi kālā $246M, laikini $572M me nā kālā ʻauhau kūlanakauhale ma "zero." Piʻi ka huina kālā i $3.781B. Ma ka hopena o ka lilo, ua hōʻike ʻo Scherr e kūʻai ana lākou i $450M waiwai o ka ʻinikua.
"He hana nui ka 'Olumepika i ka honua. He hopena maikaʻi ka hoʻokele waiwai no nā makahiki e hiki mai ana i ka makahiki 2016, "wahi āna.
"I ka haʻi ʻana mai o ka poʻe iaʻu e mālama ʻia ka hanana ma Chicago, manaʻo wau he pupule loa ia. ʻAʻole hiki i ke kūlanakauhale ke kūʻai aku; ʻAʻole i hui pū ke kūlanakauhale, "wahi a Laurence Geller, ka luna o Strategic Hotels & Resorts me ka hoʻohui ʻana ʻo Chicago paha he 7 hope loa o 12 mau balota i kahi koho no ka 'Olumepika. Akā, ma waena o ka mayor, ka luna a me ka Luna Nui o Chicago 2016, ʻo Patrick Ryan a me kekahi mau kānaka ʻē aʻe, ʻaʻole i liʻuliʻu e hōʻoiaʻiʻo iā Geller ʻo ka 'Olumepika kekahi o nā mea maikaʻi loa e hiki ke hana i ke kūlanakauhale Windy.
“E like me ka mea hoohuli hou, hiki i kekahi ke lilo i euanelio. Kākoʻo piha ko mākou mau hōkele i ka ʻOlumepika. ʻIke wau he nui ka hopena ripple ma ka hoʻokele waiwai. ʻO ka mea nui loa, ʻo ka pōʻai hoʻoikaika waiwai e loaʻa iā mākou no kēia kūlanakauhale a no ka mokuʻāina he mea nui loa, "wahi a Geller.
