The project, which marks the most significant renovation to the terminal since 1992, will improve the main terminal building’s environmental sustainability as well as improve the passenger experience.
The terminal renovation project has been in the works since 2011. The airport is partnering with EMJ Construction to find as many local and regional subcontractors as possible to participate on the project.
Architectural firm Derthick, Henley & Wilkerson, one of the firms responsible for the original design of the passenger terminal, will once again serve on the project team. The project plans build off of the work of Leo A. Daly, who began this process and integrated community feedback into the new design.
Key elements of the project include complete renovation of terminal restrooms, new flooring, wall tile, painting and signage, updated public seating throughout the terminal, complete renovation of airport concessions, and new escalator system in the rotunda.
The terminal will remain operational throughout the duration of the project.
