World Market Center Building 1

World Market Center Building 1 was built to meet the need for a world class trade facility for the home furniture industry.  Located in downtown Las Vegas this one of a kind facility claimed the record of the largest show launch in U.S. history.  The building was so successful that plans for a second building were started prior to its opening.  Completed in July of 2005 this 1.3 million square foot furniture convention facility was the start of one of the fastest growing trade shows in Las Vegas.

Project Contributions: Prepared leasing documents and tenant improvements, provided support for construction administration and assisted in the layout of site hardscape, landscape and signage.
