Bird's Nest

I understand that work on the $0.6M "bird's nest", the new Olympic TV tower in Beijing, has been halted.

It seems that cuts in funding for the Games have caused designers to reconsider their plans.

The official explanation is, that fears of traffic congestion are the main reasons for the delay in construction.
