Los Angeles moved one step closer to playing host of the 2016 Summer Olympic Games Thursday, unveiling the architectural plans that proponents say would make the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum the competition's "crown jewel" and main event field.The Coliseum, just two blocks from USC, is currently home to USC football. Both the 1932 and 1984 Olympic games took place there and the stadium is a state and national landmark.
The goal of the projected $112 million project...is to leave as much of the traditional structure intact...
