FORT LAUDERDALE, FLA. (WSVN) – Broward County Convention Center rolled out a new expansion.
Speaking at the center Monday, officials announced they had reached two major milestones in the $1.1 billion, decades-long project of the convention center’s expansion.
The county inaugurated their newly-built Convention Center Connector Bypass Road that connects the convention center directly to the US-1 and State Road 84.
They also announced an east wing with more meeting space, an exhibit hall and a new 801-room Omni hotel.
Officials said the two projects are expected to bolster the local economy and create over 3,000 jobs.
