Homage to New York
Corgan’s Joseph Adams tells us more about what we can expect from John F Kennedy International Airport’s new Terminal 6.
The renaissance of John F Kennedy International Airport is well underway with the Terminal 6 renovation, a critical piece of the $19 billion JFK Redevelopment Program led by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ).
The 1.2 million square-foot expansion promises to deliver an evolution in passenger experience and transform the airport into an unrivalled global gateway.
The undertaking offers a world-class facility in a well-choreographed artistry of technology, efficiency, and innovation, wrapped in a distinctly New York experience.
The development and long-term operations of Terminal 6 are managed by JFK Millennium Partners (JMP), a consortium that is led by Vantage Group, together with American Triple I, RXR Realty, and JetBlue.
With this development, JMP and PANYNJ sought to meet the airport’s evolving infrastructure need and elevate the traveller’s journey. The new $4.2 billion terminal will accommodate cutting-edge technology, exceed sustainability goals, maximise community engagement, and support increasing guest traffic.
JMP tapped construction management company AECOM Hunt, with global architecture and design firm Corgan, to manifest an ambitious concept that envisioned the energy and poetry of E.B. White’s New York. The dream took off from there.
