History

Connecticut Convention Center in 2009

The center opened on June 2 2005.[1] It was designed by Thompson, Ventulett, Stainback & Associates and features more than 140,000 square feet (13,000 m2) of exhibition space, a 40,000-square-foot (4,000 m2) ballroom and 25,000 square feet (2,300 m2) of flexible meeting space.[3] It is the largest convention facility between New York and Boston. The Connecticut Convention Center’s 110-foot (34 m) glass atrium rises ten stories above a grand public plaza and a tree-lined riverfront esplanade.

The Connecticut Convention Center has been home to ConnectiCon since 2005.[4]

gollark: Well, you need to distinguish between them.
gollark: Also, why not store the type of block too?
gollark: I was going to suggest a bitmap or something, but you need *three* states for that - block, no block, unscanned block.
gollark: It's "block or not block at specific coordinates", right?
