Fargo Votes for New Convention Center

Fargo’s city commission just voted 4-1 to build a new convention center on the Civic Center site, beating out the Brewhalla option to revitalize downtown with more foot traffic, business, and visitors. Local business owners are buzzing about the sales boost and renewed energy for the area. After a thorough review of multiple sites, construction could begin late 2026, wrapping up by 2029 — just in time for the new mayor-elect and commission to take over on July 1. Funding is already secured via a 2024 hotel and motel tax approved by voters. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
