Studio ORD<\/a> has been selected to design the new O\u2019Hare<\/a> Global Terminal and Global Concourse in Chicago. This follows a competitive process<\/a> that shortlisted five architect teams last year.<\/p>\n

The city will now enter into contract negotiations with Studio ORD, a joint venture comprising Corgan Associates<\/a>, Milhouse Engineering and Construction<\/a>, STL Architects<\/a>, Solomon Cordwell Buenz & Associates<\/a>, and Studio Gang<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Upon contract award, Studio ORD will work with the City of Chicago<\/a> and the airlines to design the new terminal and concourse.<\/p>\n

In the coming months, a second team will be selected from the remaining four finalists to design two new satellite concourses to be built west of Terminal 1.<\/p>\n

This $8.5-billion expansion program will elevate the travel experience for more than 83 million passengers and create tens of thousands of jobs for the community. The expansion will be paid for by airport revenues.<\/p>\n

At 204,387 m2<\/sup> (2.2 million sf), the new O\u2019Hare Global Terminal will be one of the largest and cutting-edge terminals in the nation. It will double the space at today\u2019s Terminal 2, replacing it with an expanded, light-filled arrivals hall and\u00a0 feature:<\/p>\n
