Thanks for the link. So
it is continuous. Or at least technically speaking; 2 portions (halls A & B, and halls C & D) are joined by the vague-looking Bridge Hall. I mention this because I don't know how much can really fit in the Bridge section spanning between the two larger areas, given weight and ceiling restrictions.
Even the website labels the exhibit hall as

What has so many convention planners excited about the Phoenix CC is the fact that it is a gigantic box, with a total of six walls, a 32' ceiling all the way around, and a floor capable of bearing any load, since this hall is the bottom level of the CC. It makes things so much easier to plan for, and eliminates any doubts. Plus, no really big conventions have traveled to Phoenix yet (because of the size limits of the old hall), so it's a brand-new convention destination for many people.
