RIO DE JANEIRO — Developers brag that the athletes' village for the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics will rival a five-star resort. The village will be turned into a private condominium complex after the Games with some of the 3,600 luxury apartments selling for up to 2.3 million Brazilian reals ($700,000). The lavish layout — called “Ilha Pura” (Pure Island) — should pamper thousands of athletes in Barra da Tijuca, the western Rio suburb that's the centerpiece of the games. The village is mammoth. It has 31 17-floor towers with 10,160 bedrooms that will sleep 18,000 people. — AP
