Although Brisbane's 2032 Olympic Games selection celebration is still fresh in our minds, the groundwork has already been done towards the event's athletes' village.
New artist's impressions released today show what the Northshore Hamilton site could look like in 11 years, with the city's winning bid triggering $14 million in new roads, water and sewerage for the area.
Deputy Premier Steven Miles said the design is the "beginning of an Olympic transformation" for the river city.

The site will house 10,000 Olympians, 5000 Paralympians and will see chefs churning out 60,000 meals a day, requiring 210,000 kilograms of raw ingredients.
"When the athletes go to the food hall, they're eating Queensland beef, Queensland vegetables," Mr Miles said.
Despite the Queensland Government already investing another $115 million in further preparation works, it remains unclear how much the final price tag will be.
What has been made clear is the fate of the site once the Games are over – with a mixture of hotels, aged care, and residential accommodation being tipped to take up the athlete exodus.
"We certainly hope that it will allow us to deliver some housing for social and affordable housing," Mr Miles said.
