An 18-meter-tall Olympic emblem was fixed on the upper end of the building's
facade while a 64.9-meter-tall, 8.4-meter-wide piece of fiber dyed with the
"Beijing 2008" red mark was stuck to its east wall.
Officials with the image-building project said a similar decorative fiber is
expected to be installed to its west wall when the whole project finishes in
mid-July.
BOCOG moved into the 19-story building in late January this year due to its
growing volume of work. Located at the mid-section of Beijing's North Fourth
Ring Road, the office building will be the command center during the 2008
Olympic Games.
