Startling architecture. Enviable urban waterfront location. Vibrant city. Welcome to Pittsburgh’s David L. Lawrence Convention Center.

It may be the most beautiful convention center in the world. The breathtaking curve of the roofline sweeps over the riverside,
celebrating Pittsburgh’s extraordinary site at the confluence of three major rivers. Walls of windows, expansive terraces and
balconies open to incredible river- and cityscapes. And inside, acres of column-free space are filled with brilliant sunlight.
Architectural grandeur is matched by the Convention Center’s smooth operations, setting the highest standards for efficiency,
technology, comfort, and service. All in the heart of downtown Pittsburgh.

You feel the difference from the
moment you enter. Fresh, outdoor air
and natural sunlight were an integral
part of the design requirements for
the David L. Lawrence Convention
Center. The first certified “green”
(environmentally responsible) building
of this magnitude in the world, the
Convention Center demonstrates the
advantages of bringing the outdoors
in, using the available natural resources
to the greatest extent possible.* How
does this translate to you? Excellent
indoor air quality, exciting views, and
the sunny surroundings that energize
and refresh the spirit.
*The David L. Lawrence Convention Center received the Gold LEED (Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design) Certification rating from the US Green Building Council in November, 2003.

HALL A
The huge column-free space (236,900 square feet)
means limitless opportunities for exhibits and events.
The dramatic ceiling soars far above, magnifying the
sense of space, and immense windows and skylights
flood the hall with brilliant natural light. The day-lit
exhibit halls are unique, a design feature that positively
affects both attendees and exhibitors. When darkness
is desired, the refined darkening system blocks the
light to allow for multi-media presentations.

Step outside onto the fourth floor
terrace. The spectacular expanse of
the Allegheny River and Pittsburgh’s
rolling hills spread before you. Crew
teams provide a sleek counterpoint to
the heavy towboats and barges which
work the rivers. Just across the bridge
on the North Shore, cheers rise from
PNC Park, home to Pirate baseball,
and Heinz Field, home to Steeler and
Panther football. Pittsburgh’s Cultural
District surrounds you, with theaters,
cinemas, and galleries providing an
eclectic, ever-changing mix of music,
drama, and art.
