Seattle-Tacoma Int'l Airport Central Terminal Expansion
Seattle, Washington USA

Built in 1947, the central terminal is the airport's oldest structure. The project is organized around a new central security checkpoint, which consolidates two separate checkpoints at concourses B and C. Once passengers pass through the new central checkpoint, they enter a central civic hall.

The hall houses art, interactive educational experiences and distinctive opportunities for commercial and concession outlets. Clear and unobstructed views to the gigantic flight information display allow passengers to relax and enjoy the hall. A new 60-foot tall, westward-facing curtainwall in the hall will afford travelers panoramic views of the airfield, the Olympic Mountains and Mount Rainier. "Streets," reminiscent of Seattle landmarks such as Pioneer Square and Pikes Market, lead passengers to concourses.
