Description: Profile of the convention block of the International Convention Centre Sydney, as viewed from the dock nearby in March 2017. The convention block is one of three segments of the complex - it is the northernmost segment, and houses the Darling Harbour Theater, the Pyrmont Theater, the Parkside Ballroom, The Gallery, and the Grand Ballroom, along with many different rooms purposed for conventions of any scale and size. The building's design, an abstract form composed of many tesselating triangular shapes, was made to fit in well with surrounding buildings in Darling Harbour, which also adopt similar differentiating designs. The center was opened in December 2016, replacing the old Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre, which stood on the same site for 25 years.
