Photos: Bloomington Convention Center expansion construction

College Avenue south of 3rd Street in downtown Bloomington was closed to traffic starting Tuesday (June 30) for continued construction of the skywalk that will connect the convention center expansion project to the existing facility. The closure is expected to last another three weeks, through July 24.

Here’s a view of the current state of construction on the project through the lens of Kelton O’Connell, with the steel, concrete and glass curtain walls catching Tuesday’s evening light.
