DALLAS — More than three dozen groups have already booked convention space for the year after construction is scheduled to be completed on Dallas' Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center, city staff told councilmembers in the first update on the project in nearly a year.

Rosa Fleming, the city's director of convention and event services, said the building is on track to open in 2029, despite slight changes in plans to accommodate TxDOT and Norfolk Southern Railway projects.
