Wow, wow! Lots of change! I can see that. No more T2, T3, T7. The old Delta T2 will be demolished. It's very old terminal. This is where the old Pan Am terminal used to be.

Wtf are these renderings? Are they building an airport or a circus? It looks so cheesy.
Are these photos inspiration or final renderings? |

30 years too late, but thank God this is finally happening. I especially like the news that all the terminals will now be connected by foot, and that Airtrain will have additional capacity, including options for one-seat ride to Manhattan. Once these new terminals are built, JFK will be down to five terminals and the oldest will be from 2003. |

First impression as well. But realistically most of that garish branding stuff won't actually make it into the final product. Those awful JFK globe things look like something you's see in Uzbekistan or something. |

as probably a rare someone who has been to three different airports in uzbekistan i can tell you the airports there are a lot less garish. in fact they are rather pleasant and not garish at all. no giant globe thingys! :D |

Fun pics. I hope the hotel addition to the Saarinen TWA terminal is a success. One of my favorite buildings.

$13 Billion Terminal Redevelopment Plan Unveiled For JFK International Airport

I don't want to complain but does anyone else feel the architecture is, for a lack of a better word, a bit generic?
|
Meh it looks fine. The lack of new airfield capacity and improved transit to the airport is more troubling to me. If you're going to spend billions then core functions of transportation should be addressed if they are constrained.
In the end it seems like JFK travelers will just have fancier places to wait. |
Agreed 100%. Even if there is no firm plan in place they ought to be constructing a subterranean station shell and access tunnel out towards the west as part of this rebuilding project is done. That way when LIRR, the PA or whatever it will be is serious about getting a nonstop airport express from Penn, or even more ambitious a super express to lower Manhattan via Atlantic Ave and a branch from TriboroRX, the terminal is there awaiting it. The same is true for LGA where they should at least be preparing a raw space under the complex for subterranean N/W or LIRR connection from the west. The AirTrain is a shortsighted politically expedient band-aid that will never live up to other better operational solutions.
