I came up with 1,858.068 metri quadri which doesn't seem right to me. Can anyone confirm or give me the correct conversion.

neutral Riccardo Schiaffino: numericamente la risposta è giusta, ma sarebbe meglio tradurre "quasi 2 milioni di metri quadrati", per non dare ella traduzione un grado di precisione che non c'è nell'originale.

  -> la domanda era quanti metri quadrati fossero i 20 milioni di ft² . Concordo che la traduzione può essere "circa 1,86 milioni di m²", o come da te suggerito
