A year after London 2012, the city awarded 67.5 million pounds ($103 million) of contracts to redevelop the Olympic Stadium and announced plans to construct the U.K.’s biggest indoor ski slope.

London Mayor Boris Johnson said Australia’s Westfield Group will be making a planning application for the city’s first indoor ski center next to its Stratford shopping center at the Olympic Park by the end of the summer. Financial details weren’t revealed, although the Evening Standard said it will cost up to 200 million pounds.
