Some nice pictures here
It’d be nice to see if the gate areas have been fixed up. Those were always pretty awful and depressing.
A whole new concourse opened for gates 2018 December and now another concourse is on its way to fully replace all the gates remaining in terminal B
new gates open on August 5
How far along does that bring them in the overall project? What’s left to be completed?
Part of A is open. It is the second half of A that needs to be built after the old headhouse and concourses are demolished.
so it’s just Gates D2-D10 that need to be rebuilt?
yes the most recent concourse that opened (last week) was half the building. Once the demolition of the old ‘Pier D’ is complete the 2nd phase of Concourse A will begin and then combine into one just like Concourse B (Gates 40-59).
All while the old terminal b building is being demolished and the pedestrian bridge is being built from the head house to Concourse A
It looks beautiful, had the opportunity to see it flying out with SW in March. It’s unfortunate though that it won’t really help with aircraft congestion, LGA needs an expanded and reconfigured airfield.
Actually while the runways aren’t changing (lot’s of design, engineering and regulatory red tape to do that), the airport being pushed forward will increase the taxi-way to allow planes to navigate better and reduce the traffic jams that LGA is famous for.
Right. The taxiways have been a bottleneck and that is being addressed.
With so much disappointment around the bus and rail infrastructure in our region, it’s nice to see La Guardia and EWR getting some 21st century updates.
The new LGA Terminal B looks amazing. It’s about time we got a nice, modern airport in NY.
Excited to see the rest of this completed.
Does anyone know when they will start the redesign of JFK?
