SUCCESS STORIES
George R. Brown Convention Center
Originally completed in the fall of 1987, the convention center’s distinctive design is meant to reflect the city’s oil and gas-based economy. Despite two major expansions, as well as construction of a connected Hilton hotel, convention business declined through the years as newer venues opened in competing cities. Super Bowl LI, slated for Houston in February 2017, served as a catalyst to help reshape downtown’s east end into a vibrant new focal point of the city.
B&D was proud to be selected as the construction partner for the pedestrian-friendly space along the front of the convention center, the 97,000-square-foot Avenida Plaza. This plaza, which includes restaurants with Ipe decking, a water fountain with kinetic sculpture and a catenary wharf structure, connects the convention center to adjacent Discovery Green park.
By February 2017, just in time for the Super Bowl LI, the George R. Brown welcomed a global audience for Super Bowl LI. The GRB’s Avenida Plaza draws in visitors and presents a dynamic new space to enjoy. It was rewarding to be part of such an important project that helped put our city back on the map.
