ダラスは新しいコンベンションセンターの開発を承認した。このコンベンション・センターは、レストラン、小売店、宿泊施設、エンターテイメントなどを含む、ダラスの本格的で歩きやすい都市体験ができる新しいコンベンション・センター地区の中核となる。
Sustainability is a key priority in the redevelopment of the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center Dallas. The new facilities are being designed to LEED certification standards and will incorporate innovative strategies to reduce energy and water use while minimizing impacts on local infrastructure. The project also addresses Dallas-specific resilience challenges, such as stormwater management, urban heat-island effects, air quality and drought conditions. Through these holistic solutions, the district will support long-term environmental performance, while creating a vibrant, sustainable destination for residents and visitors alike.
The new center is designed as a vertical campus, bringing exhibit halls, meeting rooms and ballrooms together within a connected footprint. This layout allows attendees to move quickly and easily between sessions, exhibits and events while improving overall flow throughout the building. Clear wayfinding and strong connections to Downtown Dallas hotels, dining and entertainment create a seamless experience both inside and outside the convention center.
Yes, the redevelopment will follow a phased construction approach, allowing portions of the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center Dallas to remain operational during the project. This strategy helps ensure Dallas can continue hosting meetings and events while the new facility is developed, with Visit Dallas working closely with planners to provide seamless solutions throughout the process.
The vertical campus is designed with multiple protected stairwells, clearly marked exit routes and life-safety systems on every floor to ensure safe and efficient evacuation. In an emergency, occupants exit via stairwells to ground-level assembly areas, supported by trained staff, emergency communications and coordination with local first responders. Areas of refuge are also incorporated to assist individuals who may need additional support.
