Just another render to illustrate the bridge between the older structure and new one with York Ave beneath it. Vehicles will use York as a major entrance point to the building(s), (left: existing , right:addition), both the old and new expansion so traffic will flow beneath it.
"City Room, which will bridge York Avenue and will feature floor to ceiling windows to let in sunlight during the day and the glow of the city in the evenings. The 46,000 sq. ft. space will accommodate 2,800 people for sit-down dinners or 217 tradeshow booths. At street level underneath, York Avenue will serve as an outdoor, weather-protected gathering place.
Other Features:
The $180 million dollar upgrade will include:
Total space on completion 264,000 sq. ft.
24,000 sq. ft. main floor ballroom;
22,400 sq. ft. main floor public lobby, concourse and registration area;
and an additional 57,500 sq. ft. third floor exhibit space that will connect to the existing building creating a new contiguous 135,500 sq. ft. of exhibition space that can accommodate over 650 exhibit booths.
