The expansion of the Savannah Convention Center in Savannah, Georgia was designed and constructed to support large conventions, trade shows, and community events while strengthening the city’s tourism and economic activity.

The facility significantly increases the center’s capacity, adding exhibit space, ballrooms, and multiple meeting rooms to accommodate larger gatherings. Architecturally, the building features modern canopied entrances, a large glass curtain wall façade, and exposed structural steel that highlights the building’s contemporary design. Structurally, the project incorporates long-span steel framing and deep trusses that allow column-free exhibition halls and a ballrooms creating flexible, open interior spaces suited for large events.
