Tampa Convention Center

The Tampa Convention Center is a mid-sized convention center located in Downtown Tampa, Florida. Its location is ideal because it has both waterfront views, and views of the skyline. In 2006, a 20-story Embassy Suites hotel opened next door, with a skybridge connecting it to the convention center. The center encompasses 600,000 square feet in total.

It is built on the original site of Ft. Brooke, the original American settlement on Tampa Bay from which Tampa grew.
