#20 Tennis Court, Atlanta, 1996 Summer Olympics Venue

The derelict netting and scoreboard in the background on a tennis court stand at the Stone Mountain Tennis Center, home of the 1996 Summer Olympic Games tennis events, in Stone Mountain, Georgia, July 19, 2016. The permanent tennis facility built in a corner of Stone Mountain Park quickly became a money-loser and now sits idle, weeds growing through the outer courts and the scoreboard in disrepair.

#21 Beach Volleyball Centre, Athens, 2004 Summer Olympics Venue

General view of the Beach Volleyball Olympic Stadium at Faliro Olympic Complex in Athens, Greece on July 31, 2014. Ten years ago, the XXVIII Olympiad was held in Athens from the 13th – 29th August with the motto ‘Welcome Home’. The cost of hosting the games was estimated to be approx 9 billion euros, with the majority of sporting venues built specifically for the games. Due to Greece’s economic frailties post Olympic Games, there has been no further investment and the majority of the newly-constructed stadiums now lie abandoned.
