Construction is underway on a $2.9B project to renovate and expand Terminal 3 at the San Francisco International Airport (SFO).<\/p>\n

The project will upgrade the 60,386 m2<\/sup> (650,000 sf) western half of the terminal. It will also create 18,580 m2<\/sup> (200,000 sf) of additional space, allowing for expanded food, beverage, and retail concessions. It will also include a seismic retrofit.<\/p>\n

The Terminal 3 West Modernization project will create a welcoming new exterior facade, more space for check-in, including self-bag drop, and new security checkpoints. Arriving international passengers will have direct access to the Customs Hall, which can be accessed via a new Federal Inspection Service (FIS) sterile connector.<\/p>\n

The terminal will include a new six-story building that will house airline lounges and operational office space.<\/p>\n

Sustainability features will include daylight harvesting, displacement ventilation, on-site photovoltaic (PV) cells, waste heat recovery, low-carbon steel and concrete, energy-smart baggage handling, dynamic glazing, recycled water, hydration stations, health-friendly materials, and green building education.<\/p>\n

Undertaken by Turner Construction Company and Gensler, the expanded section will open in fall 2027.<\/p>\n

SFO is targeting LEED Platinum certification for this project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
