The grand opening of the George R. Brown Convention Center in 1987 shined with a parade, music festival, aerial artwork, red-carpet tours, and a ribbon-cutting by the Mayor. A spectacular fireworks show capped the unveiling and civic pride in the new facility. The center is named for the late Houston entrepreneur, civic leader and philanthropist George R. Brown. Brown's Texas Eastern Corp. donated six of the 11 blocks required to build Houston's sparkling new red-white-and-blue convention center.
