Philadelphia Intl Airport Expansion | Terminal D, E, F Expansion
New modern and efficient terminals to enhance its traveler experience
Terminal expansion project included an addition of 400,000-SF and renovations to the existing facility. The project featured a new, enclosed pedestrian connector bridge to Terminal E to enable circulation between Terminal F and the adjoining terminal complex and proposed the “E” Parking Garage. Gilbane also provided construction management services for the Terminal F single-level hub-airline commuter facility expansion. This compound has 38 commuter gates, 24 of which accommodate a new generation of aircraft. A new terminal space, passenger movement areas, and baggage systems were also added.
