East Village is an area in Stratford, East London that was designed and constructed as the Olympic Village of the 2012 Summer Olympics and has been converted for use as a new residential district, complete with independent shops, bars and restaurants. The area was formerly contaminated waste land and industrial buildings to the north of Stratford town centre.[1][2] More than 7,000 people now live in the area.[3]

The district is part of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, planning is overseen by London Legacy Development Corporation.[4]
