vancouver's new convention centre
April 4th, we went to the open house of the new convention centre in the
heart of downtown Vancouver. An amazing building. The living green
roof. The sea-life reef that was constructed underwater beneath it before
they began on the building. The cedar-brick decor that lines the interior
walls. (Up close they still smell like fresh cedar.) The fantastic harbour
and mountain views out of the 5-story windows. The proximity to Canada Place,
the building with the big-sails for a roof.
The space inside is enormous! Being there, it's so much bigger than seeing
the space in photos. They say it's got bookings through to 2018 already. All
those visitors are going to fall in love with Vancouver as they work and
celebrate in this fabulous gathering space.
