Los Angeles is famous for many things and is the second largest city in the US but it’s never been known for its conventions. That is changing, however.
Work is underway to remove the city from being the only one in the US that does not have a hotel connected to its convention center.
Ground was broken last summer on a 1,000-room Ritz-Carlton and a JW Marriott adjacent to the Los Angeles Convention Center.
The $750 million project will involve some of the largest buildings in Los Angeles.
The entire project is expected to open in 2010.
There’s also a spate of hotel renovations in the area.
In the past, convention-goers have had to take a bus to their hotels.
