Revamped Terminal is an Architectural Glass Showcase

J.E. Berkowitz (JEB) announced the completion of the Terminal F expansion and renovation project at Philadelphia International Airport (PHL). From a silk-screened glass façade to a point-supported glass canopy and wall, JEB fabricated more than 7,000 square-feet of glass for the major modernization project.

Since it opened in 2001, passenger traffic in Terminal F has grown from 3 million to 5.2 million travelers per year, currently ranking it as the third busiest of PHL’s seven terminals. Despite being the airport’s second newest terminal, Terminal F was in need of significant improvements. To enhance the passenger experience, it underwent a $161 million, multi-phase project to construct a new baggage claim building, security screening checkpoint, and secure-side passenger corridor, as well as an expansion of the terminal’s central hub.
