looks like some of these are concepts for different variations of the design that they were considering

Different view of the arrivals hall

Gates

View of post security

Customs (probably a different variation of the design they were considering)

check-in, looks like islands/piers style checkin like current T1, t4, new lga terminal b

These look more refined than the initial renderings and I love every bit of it. T1 will be phenomenal. The tackiness was toned down and it looks really nice and inviting with all the wood finishes and plants.

Here are some more renders:

Great renders, I hope they keep that wavy feature in the arrivals pickup area. Speaking of T1, I was at Kennedy earlier and saw steel starting to rise over the Airtrain tracks. I expect we’ll see more of the superstructure go up once the current terminal’s roadway is rerouted next month.

Looks like T8 is due for more work. $125 million project to redo the concessions area. Managed to find one render–looks like quite a bit of work is planned. Found from this page: John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) - URW Airports

Was sorting some files earlier when I found two renders I saved of the previous T1 plan. I got them from the website of the original architect (PGAL) just before the pandemic, which are more realistic versions of what the state published. While I’m happy with what we’re getting after seeing the latest renders, it seems we really could’ve had something much cooler, in my opinion. Unfortunately, the webpage that had these renders and around 4 more no longer exists.

Look at the torture that will have to be endured by the poor souls who arrive at T5 and want to take an Uber/Lyft to their destination.

What is this reference to “mass transit” in yesterday’s press release? Are they doing something to the AirTrain? The press release is very vague.

The project is a key part of the $19 billion public-private transformation of JFK into a world-class airport. When complete, it will dramatically improve access to the airport by simplifying the existing complex roadway network, providing easier to navigate access to terminals with improved frontage areas, and building a new ground transportation center for passengers to connect to taxis, for-hire vehicles, mass transit and parking.

PORT AUTHORITY SIGNS $1.24 BILLION CONTRACT TO DESIGN AND BUILD JFK INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT’S NEW, SIMPLIFIED ROADWAY NETWORK, GROUND TRANSPORTATION CENTER AND SUPPORTING INFRASTRUCTURE (panynj.gov)

its just about how to connect the existing airtrain stations to the new parking and circulation roads with this CTB project.


They just keep scaling it down…

its the same amount of parking spaces.

each design build team had to present their own plans, some crossed the roads, some didnt. all had equal number of parking spaces.

the PA did not design this. they specified the requirements

The design also looks cheaper as well. Such a literal shame. The other designs had more greenery and looked cooler with their large rooftop parks which are fully deleted now.
Some stuff about the roads, etc.

Another render for that new GTC. Looks like they’re adding an additional departures road for T4? Shown in the background.

I noticed that T4 seems to be re-clad in that render as well with an all-glass facade.
