LaGuardia Airport’s $4B Terminal B Reaches Completion
The opening of the western skybridge at LaGuardia Airport’s $4-billion new Terminal B on Thursday marked the completion of construction at the terminal. Coming on the heels of December’s opening of Terminal B’s second concourse, the completion of the skybridge means that every arriving and departing passenger at the terminal will experience newly built architecture and facilities from gate to curb.
“From a passenger point of view, the old LaGuardia is no more,” said Rick Cotton, executive director of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. “We have gone from worst to best, something no one thought was possible when this project began..”
Terminal B was awarded UNESCO’s Prix Versailles in December as “Best New Airport in the World” by a blue-ribbon panel of international architects.
