The Atlantic City Convention Center is "Your Northeast Business Address." Opened May 1, 1997, it contains 500,000 square feet of contiguous space, more on one floor than most other convention centers. It occupies a site of 31 acres and was erected at a cost of $268 million. Built under the auspices of the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority (NJSEA), the Convention Center is the centerpiece of a multi-million dollar redevelopment plan that includes the $90 million renovations to Historic Boardwalk Hall, the Grand Boulevard, the Sheraton Convention Center Hotel, The Walk, Atlantic City’s newest retail and entertainment complex, and many new casino expansion projects.
