A handout picture taken on March 24, 2011 and released by the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) press office shows an aerial view of the Olympic Park looking eastwards, in east London. A deprived area of London is being rapidly regenerated to host much of the 2012 Olympics in a year, but there are fears the changes may not benefit locals despite efforts to leave a positive legacy. The east London district of Stratford, home to the Olympic Park for next year's sporting extravaganza, was once so filled with smoke-belching factories it earned the unflattering nickname "Stinky Stratford. Since 2005 however, when London was awarded the Games, there has been a frenzy of construction work as the venues went up in the park, with its centrepiece the 80,000-seat Olympic Stadium.
