Jacob Javits Center

A short walk to our hotel is the Javits Center built in 1986 and named by the former New York Senator Jacob K. Javits. The facility is located on the west side of Manhattan between 34th and 38th Streets and 11th and 12th Avenues. Visitor amenities include 2 food courts, wireless internet access and numerous business centers. The Javits Center presently contains 760,000 square feet of exhibition space, 30,000 square feet of meeting space and 540,000 square feet of pre-function/core space. Recently, a major $1.7 billion dollar expansion project was begun and is expected to be completed in 2010. The expansion project will more than double the size of the complex and add 45% more exhibition space, 600% more meeting space and 74% more pre-function/core space.
