COLUMBUS, Miss. (AP) -- A $2 million-plus renovation of the Trotter Convention Center will begin later this year, city officials say.
The Commercial Dispatch reports work on the city-owned building could take up to two years.
Mayor Robert Smith said initial work will be done on the interior, including installing Wi-Fi, upgrading restrooms, installing a new elevator from the Second Avenue North entrance and installing a new sound system and lighting.
Exterior improvements include redoing copper awnings, installing restrooms in the courtyard and adding benches.
