Detailed proposals for converting the £1billion Olympic village from athletes' accommodation to family homes and flats are revealed today.
Plans from the Olympic Delivery Authority show priority for the 2,818-unit complex will be given to families to make the development a "sustainable" community for the East End.
When the 17,000 athletes vacate the Stratford estate after 2012, the complex will gain a secondary school called the Chobham Academy.
A polyclinic for treating athletes during the Games will be converted into a primary care trust and a pharmacy.
There will be about 1,400 affordable homes with 675 available for rent and the rest as shared-ownership.
Plans include 729 three-bedroom homes and 268 four-bedroom units. Each flat will cost an average of £390,000.
The project was nationalised last month after ministers abandoned attempts to raise private funds.
Under the deal, £650million has come from the Olympic contingency fund and £147million will come out of the delivery authority's budget.
