We are creating a new piece of London with family neighbourhoods, open space and events, inspired by the 2012 venues that surround them. It will bring together the best of London in one place and will be one of the United Kingdom's premier visitor attractions."The culture secretary, Jeremy Hunt, said: "It is a great honour that Her Majesty the Queen has given her consent to the name the park the Queen Elizabeth Park after the Games. "Her Majesty has been supportive of London 2012 from the start and the event taking place in her diamond jubilee year, it is fitting that the park bears her name."Olympic games 2012Londonguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds guardian.co.uk |
