Description
Shown is a postcard displaying a photograph of the "recently built" Community Convention Center, located on Fourteenth and K streets, circa 1974. This ambitious project cost 20 million dollars and held its grand opening on June 29, 1974, during which, the Sacramento Symphony Orchestra performed a concert. Sam J. Burns, the center's first general manager, reassured Sacramentans that the new project would not replace the Memorial Auditorium, located across J Street just northeast of newly-built center, in a Sacramento Bee article published June 23, 1974. Instead, he was confident that both would be fairly booked. This goes against what is written on the back of this postcard, which claims that the center was specifically built to "replace the Memorial Auditorium."
