Centerplate@ the Jacob Javitts Center,New York Reviews

I enjoyed myself at the car show every time I attend.

Good interior, planned well, but it's a shame that in NYC and food inside is garbage and overpriced, mens room have no dividers, sucks, if someone tickles hard you may get "golden shower "

The New York Comic Con rocks!!! Nerdville, hollywood, and ripley's believe it or not...all rolled into one. This is the mecca for all comic afficiandos and other weirdos!

I ve only been here for IBS NY and this place is huge, so much to do and it s always been a fun trip I ve looked forward to.

All the staff down to the restroom attendant. We're kind and friendly very helpful. My family and I had a great time can't wait to go back. P.s thanks for the free ride to my car Verizon.

We went to the N.Y. International Auto show here with my brother and 4 year old son. We loved it. The event was amazing. We have been attending since I was young. Lots of walking. There is very little parking near the venue unless you want to pay 40 to 50 bucks. Plan on taking public transportation. Sunday's you can find some street parking near by around 46th and 11th.

Have gone annually to the car show here for many years. Nice venue but not enough food accommodations.

Went here for new York comic Con. It was crowded but the venue was lovely

Short walk from Penn Station, lots of amenities, spacious and clean. I have not been disappointed by this venue

The Javits Center is surrounded by controversy. A grand ceremony was held in October 2006 to mark the 20th anniversary of the center. The ceremony was also announced that the building would expand considerably. New, ultra-modern buildings would be built next to the existing hall. The entire project exceeded the estimated costs by tens of millions of dollars.

After eighteen months, the expansion was halted by a wrong assessment of the cost and hassle of the city of New York. Mayor Bloomberg said he no longer wanted to invest in the expansion. In April 2008, the expansion was stopped and it was decided to tear down the new construction and to thoroughly renovate the existing building. This renovation eventually cost half a billion dollars.

Was here for the International motorcycle show.

Nice place but got crowded quick.

To be expected in NY, but really annoying when I can clearly see the room had tons of unused space along the walls.

The International Beauty Show as well as the Wellness and Spa Show are sure an iconic Rendez-Vous of beauty and savoir faire, when it comes to total body and hair works, including education and business exposure. Naturally the Javits Convention Center is the Venue par Excellence in NYC. I love it every year.

Great open space but a bit loud during conventions, and sterile when there's no one there.

Before attending Fancy Food Show at the Javits Center. I only knew it as the giant glass structure near where I pick up the Megabus back to Washington, DC. After attending a food expo here, I now know how much more it is. It's one of NYC's biggest convention centers and it's location is perfect! It's on the river on the east side of Manhattan only a half mile from Penn Station and hundreds of hotels.

The convention center itself if enormous with many huge halls. The main lobby areas are glass giving the convention center an open, inviting feel to it. There are Starbucks and food areas sprinkled throughout, but I recommend walking a few blocks to nearby Gotham West Market. It's like a hipster food court serving only gourmet food with accessible prices!

Many world renowed conventions are held here. Very large and spacious

Huge convention center for everyone. I mostly enjoy Comic Con. The place is large so get ready to walk a lot. Food and drinks are expensive inside the center.

Huge conference venue with excellent wifi access and lots of food choices. So glad Vision Expo East is held here every year!

Restrooms are nasty, security are unprofessional and doesn't respect people's privacy.

This is a amazingly huge convention center the car show here is outing his world

The Javits center, as we locals call it is a perfect convention center that just got better because of one awesome solution: the 7 train now extends all the way to 34th and 11th Ave, just around the corner from the center. So what used to be a good three Avenue walk to public transportation (leaving from the center) or a ridiculous bus ride, is now a simple Subway ride right to the center. I've been there for photo expos, food shows, university graduations, and the center is always run with precision and efficiency

Awesome place to hold events especially with all the glass walls and natural lighting. Also, rest rooms open to the public as well. It lost a star die to the freezing temps in there. Just have a sweater ready if you plan to be there for a while.

Went couple of times for International Dental Meeting... Can park in nearest lots, 42 Port Authority parking is Ideal...

This place is really big, the conventions hosted in this building are really nice and is mostly clean. Obviously everything that is food in this center is expensive and you usually can't bring in food but, overall still a go to for New York conventions.

Sneaky good concert venue. Awesome night. Super wide stage so people got pretty close despite huge crowd. Fun things to do set up around sides and back.

Huge place for tradeshows and conferences. Amazing glass atrium.

Tough to do business here. $3,000 for an internet connection at a vendor booth is absurd. Going to events as a patron is okay, but working here can be a nightmare. The union presence is a bit strong.

Designed by famous architect I.M.Pei. Mammoth column less space, a result of space frames. Pei has also designed National gallery of art at Washington D.C.

The auto show was great this year. They had some hyper cars you usually wouldn't be able to see.

NYC's premier convention space. Now that the 7Train stops near by, its easier to get to.

Awesome landmark convention center. Saw the auto show here and it was a lot of fun. Great space in a great location.

Spectacular open wide spaces. Perfect for any event.

I have visited Jacob Javits over the years to attend various events.
This easily has got to be one of or the largest venues in the NYC area.
But the location of this place is not the most convenient because it is a pretty far walk from most modes of public transportation and parking legally in the area is almost impossible.

Awesome place went to see the New York International Auto Show. It is a big place and the location is awesome.

Access by public transportation reasonable. Parking nearby inadequate and pricey. Depending on event, entrance can be chaotic. Food options limited.

This place is huge, saw the car show at Javits Center. It runs like a well oiled machine.

Needs a lot more bathrooms and signs saying where they are. For such a large place I have never seen so few bathrooms. Also the escalators should always be in use, when you go to a convention you do alot of walking and by the end of 8 hours going up all those flights of stairs and having to climb the escalators because none of them are on is just ridiculous. Also need to have more food options open. There were only 4 options available and none were completely vegan except for a salad.

Clean, bright and well organized; only flaw: the usual rude vigilance

Here for Comicon, very big, clean and well organized considering the size of place.

Fun time. Good food. Always enjoy the expos. Easy to get to by subway

Circle of Sister's event was awsome and the concert was uplifting and encouraging.

NY Auto show. Not as good as expected.
Motor cycle no longer included.

Marathon expo was there and it was nicely laid out, fun and informative!

I attended Rupauls Drag Con NYC and it was great but hopefully next year they will bring it better!!!! #RUPAULSDRAGCONNYC

Amazing & incredible place especially when it is the Comic Con or AnimeNYC with 100% recommended

Always a pain in the ass to get here. The place is enormous. I hate coming here.

Went to see the 2018 boat show. It was very well set up though a bit tight.

Went to New York Comic Con here seven times massive space appreciated the Starbucks way too crowded. One of the landmarks for that part of the city. You can pick up the Bolt Bus right in front of it which is extremely helpful on all necessity to the city and helpful for newcomers finding their way. The one thing I want is better wi-fi and cheaper coffee.

Great place to go at any event, they are well organized

The place is big, went there for the 2018 auto show which was not as last year. Some how this year seems a bit off beat and there were less to give you that wow feeling. As always parking is a problem when it come to the city so if best take a taxi, train or maybe visit on a Sunday

Barely any parking at all you have to walk far. Lots of security and it's only a good place if you are having a convention or going to see one

No parking except for crooks in the area! $15 to get through the tunnel and trying to find parking is frustrating in its self. If you took the Javits center and put it in New Jersey like the NJ Expo Center it would be a 10 star.
