Cortina locals split on Olympic benefits

From Reuters.

With just over two weeks to go before the start of the Olympic Winter Games 2026, Cortina d’Ampezzo is in the final phase of preparations to co-host the Games. "The opinions are obviously divided," said environmentalist Silverio Lacedelli, noting residents were told "95% of the structures existed already" when nearly all had to be built. Others welcome the economic boost and global exposure the Olympics are expected to bring.
