Scope Of Work
LaGuardia Airport opened to the public in 1964 with a design capacity of 8 million annual air passengers. Today, Terminal B annually serves more than 14 million passengers. This project will position LaGuardia Airport to meet the needs of the 21st Century. Specific components include:
A new Terminal B
A Central Hall designed to unify the Airport
A new West Garage
A pedestrian walkway connection between the new Terminal B and the new West Garage
A new central heating and refrigeration plant
A consolidated receiving and warehouse distribution facility
A new hydrant aircraft fueling infrastructure located within the new Terminal B contiguous aircraft ramp areas (collectively, the “New Terminal B Facilities”).
The design and construction of:
- Improvements to the public airport roads and utilities associated with such roadway improvements
- Replacement utilities and new utilities serving the New Terminal B Facilities
- Associated toll plaza for the new West Garage serving the New Terminal B Facilities
- Airfield modifications between the New Terminal B Facilities and the adjacent taxiways
A building fit-out for relocation of Port Authority operations.
LaGuardia Central reflects recommendations from New York Governor Cuomo’s Airport Advisory Panel, including the new light-filled Central Entry Hall, which will connect Terminals B and C and unify the airport for the first time. By constructing the new terminal closer to the Grand Central Parkway, it will increase airport taxiways and reduce airport ground delays.
