Capitol Hill Seattle reports that the Convention Center started the public process Tuesday night on a $1B, 1,230,000 square foot expansion.

"Powered by its bonding authority, the WSCC has already acquired $56.5 million worth of land between 9th and Boren, and Howell and Olive Way that is today home to a Honda dealership. King County’s transit center block is also on the WSCC’s acquisition target list."

Apparently, the project is slated to break ground in 2017.
