The above sentence tells me the entrance is on the 7th street side.
But I don't get that much detail from your sentence at all. ![Sad [:(]](/emoticons/emotion-6.gif)

Hi Goodman, As I said, in both versions of your sentence, the location of the entrance sounds the same to me: the corner is the location of the entrance.
This is possibly what I would say to indicate the location the way you wanted to indicate it above:
The Washington State Convention and Trade Center is conveniently located in downtown Seattle with our main entrance on 7th Street at the corner of Pike.

Hi Amy,
I agree. Your latest version “our main entrance is on 7th at Pike” no doubt is the most clear, however requiring an additional Prep. “on”. In an case, I think the question is resolved.
