A possible $1 Billion expansion of the Orange County Convention Center could be ready as soon as the Summer of 2011. [wftv.com]
Developer Marc Watson has had architects working on plans for the north side of the convention center since 2005. Watson’s gaol is to build an entertainment megaplex that rivals Las Vegas. The plan calls for restaurants, an amphitheater, as well as four star hotels and shops along the water.”It will be the greatest urban convention meetings destination in the world,” said Watson.
Throw in some gambling and Orlando might be able to take over Vegas as the top spot for conventions and trade shows.
