On Saturday, February 23, 2002, the Engineering Explorers Post was treated to a tour of the new Knoxville Convention Center (KCC). The KCC is scheduled to open Summer 2002. Very special thanks go to Ms. Linda Swann, Sales Manager who arranged the tour, and Mr. Jim Powell of the Public Building Authority who led the tour. They both graciously gave up their Saturday morning to provide the tour. We learned a great deal about how construction of this large facility has been designed, managed, and performed. For more information on the KCC, visit their web site at www.knoxvilleconventioncenter.com. Be sure and check out their photo gallery tour and compare it to the construction site photos shown below.
