The Dallas City Council on Wednesday approved a six-year, $65 million deal with a firm led by developer Jack Matthews to oversee a nearly $3 billion rebuild of the downtown convention center.

Inspire Dallas LLC, which state records show was established in April, is now tasked with turning concept drawings of a new Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center — as well as aspirations of revitalizing parts of downtown and boosting city tourism dollars — into a reality.
