Grimshaw leads design of new $1.4 billion terminal at Newark Airport
Architecture firm Grimshaw has announced its involvement in building a new Terminal One at Newark Airport, which serves New York City.
Grimshaw is acting as lead design architect for the project at Newark Liberty International Airport, which the global firm described as "the largest transportation infrastructure design-build contract in New Jersey state history".
Working with lead design firm STV and contractor Tutor Perini/Parsons, the architecture firm has planned a two-level T-shaped building that will encompass one million square feet of space and include 33 gates.
"The design is intended to accommodate the airport's growing capacity while meeting the changing demands of passengers and airlines for years to come," said Grimshaw in a statement. Expected to begin construction in April 2018 and complete in 2022, the $1.41 billion (£1 billion) Terminal One will replace the airport's adjacent Terminal A. The aim is to create more passenger amenities, and a more efficient check-in system and security screening process.
The terminal is also designed to be modified and expanded in future, in anticipation of increased airline demand and passenger volume.
"The most successful contemporary airports of today have a clear vision for the future in anticipation of change," said Grimshaw. "Terminal One will position EWR to successfully accommodate a rapidly changing industry and unprecedented levels of growth."
