Spanish-Dominican group, Consorcio OHL-Grupo Alfa was given the full responsibility to build the Santo Domingo Pan Am Games Olympic Village. The eight 23-floor towers with 700 apartments will house an estimated 5,000 athletes and coaches coming for the Summer 2003 Pan American Games. Two other companies that had been assigned three buildings were discarded when they could not ensure the sale of the apartments following their use for the games. The apartments will go up diagonally across from the Juan Pablo Duarte Olympic Center, site of most of the Pan Am Games competitions.
