Atlantic City Convention Center

The Atlantic City Convention Center is a large convention center located in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The center opened in 1997 and features 500,000 square feet (46,000 square meters) of exhibit space, 5 exhibition halls, 45 meeting rooms totaling 109,000 square feet (10,100 square meters), a garage with 1,400 parking spaces, and an adjacent Sheraton hotel. It was developed as part of the city gateway revitalization project, which also includes Tanger Outlets The Walk and Grand Boulevard. The building opened with an accompanying Sheraton hotel.

Designed by senior architect and partner Gilbert Rosenthal, AIA of Philadelphia-based urban planning firm WRT (Wallace, Roberts and Todd)[1], the building features a wave-inspired carpet and a beach-themed rock bar. The main hall is housed within a courtyard illuminated by a 90-foot skylight. Between the convention center and the Sheraton hotel is a landscaped garden featuring an interactive bronze statue of Bert Park wearing a crown. When visitors place their heads into the tree canopy and tap it, sensors activate a recording of the park's "She's there..." playback through speakers hidden in the bushes.
