Architectural drawings by Allan S. Atherton for the new convention center at 221 S. 4th St., that replaced the Equitable Building, in downtown Louisville. Atherton made the drawings while working for Luckett & Farley Architects and Engineers in 1973. Included are North-South and East-West cross section drawings, the lower level, street level, and upper level floor plans, and a perspective drawing. Originally called the Commonwealth Convention Center, the building opened in 1977, but was later renovated and expanded, reopening in August of 2018. Today, the building is known as the Kentucky International Convention Center (KICC).
