Built adjacent to the Olympic Stadium is the ArcelorMittal Orbit, a 115m sculpture and observation tower. Created specifically for the London 2012 Olympics, it is Britain's largest piece of public art. It was designed by Anish Kapoor and Cecil Balmond and part-funded by the steel magnate, Lakshmi Mittal. Kapoor was inspired to design a tower that had a spiral, coiling form and was influenced by the painting, 'The Tower of Babel' by the Flemish artist Pieter Bruegel the Elder.

同奧林匹克體育館毗鄰的阿塞洛-米塔爾瞭望塔是一座高 115米，看上去瘋狂扭曲的巨型雕塑。是專門為 2012 年倫敦奧運(yùn)會設(shè)計(jì)的, 也是英國大型的公共藝術(shù)作品。由建筑師 Anish Kapoor，Cecil Balmond 設(shè)計(jì)建造，由鋼鐵大亨 Lakshmi Mittal 提供部分贊助。這座螺旋形扭曲高塔的設(shè)計(jì)者是從佛蘭德斯藝術(shù)家 Pieter Bruegel the Elder 的著名繪畫“巴別塔”得到靈感的。
