The Palais des congrès de Montréal is a convention centre in Montreal's Quartier international at the north end of Old Montreal. Its borough is Ville-Marie. Construction began in 1977 and completed in 1983; the Palais opened on 21 May 1983. Victor Prus designed the original building.Some of the land for Palais des congrès was expropriated from Chinatown, Montreal, along with building of Complexe Guy-Favreau. Plans to expand the Palais began in 1997. It was expanded from 1999 to 2002, doubling its capacity from 92,000 square metres (990,000 sq ft) to 184,000 square metres (1,980,000 sq ft). The expansion was designed by a consortium of three firms: Tétrault Parent Languedoc; Saia Barbarese Topouzanov; and Aedifica, with Hal Ingberg.It was built above the Ville-Marie Expressway, downtown Montreal's main underground highway. It is on the Montreal Metro at the Place-d'Armes station and is 20 kilometres (12 mi) away from Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport. It is connected to Montreal's underground city and by indoor walkways to 4,000 hotel rooms.
