LaGuardia Airport New Terminal B

2023. 3. 28. 13:30

LaGuardia Airport’s new Terminal B symbolizes the top-to-bottom transformation of one of the nation’s highest-profile airports. The design draws on the architecture, history and geography of New York. Grand-scaled sequences—reminiscent of Grand Central Station—include 60-foot-high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. Majestic pedestrian bridges connect the Arrivals and Departures Hall to island concourses and free up valuable taxiway for aircraft. The bridges double as a metaphor for New York, a city of islands and bridges, and provide stunning, panoramic views of Manhattan. Retail and dining ‘neighborhoods’ include New York originals such as Brooklyn Diner, Gotham Newsstand, FAO Schwartz and Shake Shack. Indoor green space are modeled after New York’s urban pocket parks with lush landscaping and sculptural benches.

As the world’s first airport to earn LEED v4 Gold certification, Terminal B sets new standards for sustainability and resilience in civil infrastructure. Extensive daylighting and a solar thermal system reduce energy consumption. Strategic placement of operational systems (above flood levels or protected in underground concrete), ensure the terminal remains functional during major storm events. HOK and WSP led the design of Terminal B in coordination with the Port Authority of New York and New York Jersey and LaGuardia Gateway Partners.
