Work on Puerto Rico Convention Center Completed
The Puerto Rico Convention Center has completed work on a signature skylight, spanning 885,150 sq ft and designed to portray ocean waves in complex geometry, color and translucency.

The skylight was designed by architectural firms Jiménez & Rodríguez Barceló AIA, of San Juan, Puerto Rico, and TVS International, Inc. of Atlanta, manufactured by Super Sky Products of Mequon, Wis. and finished by Linetec of Wausau, Wis.

In 2007, the Puerto Rico Convention Center won the Prime Site Award of Excellence. Opened in November 2005, the 580,000-square-foot center is the largest in the Caribbean and claims to be the most technologically advanced throughout both the Caribbean and Latin America. The "techno-tropic" facility accommodates groups of up to 10,000 and is scheduled to host the Associated Builders and Contractors national convention in March 6-7, 2008 and the International Federation for Housing and Planning Congress in October 2008.
