  /LP,/TX  The Denver Metro Convention & Visitors Bureau will open its 
    Downtown information center Thursday - complete with live music 
    and drawings for prizes - at its new, expanded location in the 
    Tabor Center. 
     
       The new center replaces the center at Colfax and 14th St., 
    which has been closed and was the site of the bureau's Downtown 
    facility since 1950. 
     
  /TX     Features of the new center include additional space, many 
    more services and a location with higher visitor traffic. 
       New at the center are a computer terminal so visitors can 
    access the bureau's Web site, TV monitors to present videos on 
    area attractions, an expanded brochure rack detailing hundreds 
    of area attractions and a gift shop that will sell Denver 
    souvenirs, including guide books, clothes, maps and postcards. 
     
       Eugene Dilbeck, the bureau's president, said when the old 
    center was built, the main attraction was the U.S. Mint, but he 
    noted that traffic has shifted from that area. Now, he said, 
    research shows that the 16th Street Mall is the second largest 
    attraction in Denver.
