BUILDING OVERVIEW

The Puerto Rico Convention Center (PRCC) has been developed to fulfill the needs of the convention and meetings arena and to establish Puerto Rico as an important player in this growing industry. A dream conceived more than 10 years ago, the new Puerto Rico Convention Center is now located in the heart of San Juan in the Peninsula of Isla Grande next to Miramar, Condado, and Old San Juan. Today, this modern and cutting edge Convention Center will be the drawing force for a new era of economic and tourism development in Puerto Rico.

Considered an architectural celebration of Puerto Rico’s many distinctive natural attributes, design architects for the PRCC have aimed to construct a facility that provides delegates with the distinctively “techno-tropic,” yet natural feel of the Island. This has been largely achieved by incorporating water and ocean imagery throughout the facility and infusing the colors and textures of Puerto Rico’s flora and fauna in the interior spaces. In addition, architects took full advantage of the Island’s solar orientation by designing a grand outdoor pre-function space offering panoramic views extending from Old San Juan to the beaches and ocean beyond the Condado hotel and tourist district.
