Come watch the 2012 London Olympics Opening Ceremony tonight outdoors at the Riverwalk Commons. According to the Roosevelt Island Operating Corp ( RIOC )
Dont forget that tonight is the start of the 2012 Summer Olympics! View the live coverage on the Riverwalk Commons lawn, the pre-ceremony coverage will be shown at 8:30PM and the opening ceremony will begin at 9:00PM. Feel free to bring blankets, lawn chairs, and food while you view the games. See you there!
Sincerely,
Roosevelt Island Operating Corp Advisories Group
Grab a bite to eat from Eddie’s Pizza Cart, dessert from La Bella Torte, the Riverwalk Bar & Grill, Fuji East, Nonno’s or Starbucks and enjoy being outdoors watching the Olympic Opening Ceremonies. Can you handle all the choices?
Just hope that it doesn’t rain.
UPDATE – It didn’t rain last night and the Roosevelt Island Public Viewing of the Olympics Opening Ceremony was a wonderful event. The Riverwalk Commons was full of lots of people enjoying the evening. Roosevelt Island resident Jonathan Kalkin shares this photo of the evening.

Good job by RIOC Director Margie Smith in suggesting the idea and RIOC Staff in implementing on short notice.
