this structure started off as a massive white elephant and waste of tax payers money -Issues relating to the Dome damaged the political careers of Peter Mandelson and John Prescott. The scheme was seen as an early example of what some saw as Tony Blair's often excessive optimism, .---the project was regarded as a massive failure -however a major redevelopment of the site that retained little beyond the shell of the dome,paved the way for the dome's transition into an entertainment district including an indoor arena, a music club, a cinema, an exhibition space and bars and restaurants and is now a fantastic place to visit -in the greatest city in the world the arena is great for concerts and boxing but there is plenty to do besides =restaurants cinemas etc -you can even walk over it which i can recommend and their is the emirates airline over the thames and back
