1,276 Steel Beams and Columns—and Counting

BY THE NUMBERS: 71% of steel is in place on our International Arrivals Facility! That’s 1,276 steel beams and columns out of a total of 1,798 that form the skeleton of this major terminal expansion project.

The new (and MUCH bigger) International Arrivals Facility will open in 2023 with six international gates (compared to two today) and a new Customs and Border Protection area, replacing the current facility at the end of Concourse A. It will set the stage for a whole lot more international travel!

Keep up the great work, Hensel Phelps.
