I have to admit as well, that the Convention Centre has grown on me as well. When I first saw the renderings, I thought it was pretty ugly, with all the sharp angles, and the flatness of it (I was comparing it to the Convention Centre in HK), but the more I look at it, the more I appreciate it's uniqueness. I like the model (when everything is done) that Allen posted up. It's going to look great from an aerial shot point of view. I'm excited, and can't wait to see pictures of when this entire thing is done.
Most of the Conventions will probably be "relocated" to the new Convetion Centre, from BC Place, right? I mean, the Monster Truck event(s) will still be held in BC Place (that's the only place it can be held at). It'll be nice. The new Convention Centre will bring in more people to the city....now if we can only work on the entertainment, and commercial districts...
