SALT LAKE CITY — When the 2034 Winter Olympics make their expected return to northern Utah, they'll have a familiar feel that will have many who attended the 2002 Games experiencing déjà vu.
The ability for the organizing committee to mostly use the same venues as in 2002 was a major selling point for bringing the Winter Olympics back to Salt Lake City. One addition to the venue list is called Block 85 and will hold the Big Air competitions in both skiing and snowboarding on a portable scaffold structure in the lot catty-corner to the Delta Center, the same area where the Medals Plaza was located in 2002. In addition, an Olympic curling and Paralympic wheelchair curling venue will be built at the Salt Palace Convention Center.
