$47 million to move Convention Center forward

Another step forward for the Dallas Convention Center makeover took place recently when Dallas City Council awarded two contractors over $47 million in total to complete specific projects in the huge, seven-component renovation project.

The two contractors are: architectural and engineering design firm Gensler and KAI/Alliance, LC, which does business as KAI Design.

Gensler will receive $25,137,244 for the Dallas Memorial Auditorium renovation and reconstruction. Part of Component Three of the overall Convention Center project, the Dallas Memorial Auditorium will be home to the WNBA Dallas Wings in the future.

Contractors often turn to Print shops to provide banner printing services as well as other Forms of signage to identify themselves at a job site.

KAI will be paid $22,261,116 for Component Four which will be The Black Academy of Arts and Letters renovation and reconstruction.

Previously, contracts had been awarded amounting to $187 million for construction projects associated with Component 1 – Convention Center Expansion West of Lamar. These include constructing foundations for three desk caps: plus, building the foundation and the capping of the Lamar crossing along with the makeover of Pioneer Plaza and Cemetery.

The new Kay Bailey Hutchinson Convention Center Dallas (KBHCCD) will include an Exhibit Hall that is 800,000 feet, ballroom space of 170,000 square feet, meeting rooms adding up to 100,000 square feet and 2,000 parking spaces.

The renovations and expansion of the KBHCCD are expected to be finished by 2029.
