Impressed: Jacques Rogge
28 March 2012
International Olympic Committee president Jacques Rogge has described London 2012's legacy planning as a "blueprint" for future hosts to follow.
London's success in securing the games was put largely down to their focus on legacy, and Rogge is delighted organisers are making good on their promise.
Quoted in The Independent, he said: "London has raised the bar on how to deliver a lasting legacy. We can already see tangible results in the remarkable regeneration of East London.
"This great historical city has created a legacy blueprint for future Games hosts."
