These days, as soon as you cross the Eurostar bridge (just west of Leyton Asda) onto the Eastway, you can see stadia rather than wasteland.
Progress at the Velodrome, from about as close as you can get.
The Media Centre, just west of the main gate on the Eastway, seems at a relatively advanced stage.
Three shots from almost the same spot at Lea Bank Square. Facing southwards, showing the Olympic Stadium...
...looking back northwards towards the media centre...
...and eastwards to see the concrete pillars for the Handball Arena are growing out of the rubble.
From the canal bridge behind the Big Breakfast House, you can start to see...
...they've "topped out" the Olympic Stadium, with all the lighting gantries now in place.
The view northwards, from the south-east corner of the site on the Greenway.
L-R: Olympic Stadium, Velodrome (distant), Olympic Village, Westfield shopping centre, Aquatic Centre.
Roofing the Aquatic Centre (with the new Westfield East shopping centre behind).
The beginnings of the hockey stadium, and the north side of the Velodrome. Taken at gates 1 and 2 (just south of the A12 on Temple Mills Lane).
Sunset over the Velodrome. From the Eurostar railway bridge on Temple Mills Lane.
