Delivering the Airport of the Future John F. Kennedy International Airport

HNTB is currently overseeing the multi-billion-dollar John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) Redevelopment Program for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ), partnering with them to transform JFK into a 21st century, modernized and unified facility. In addition to providing full-service program management support, HNTB’s project team is assisting the PANYNJ in the development of design-build documents for roads, utilities, the airport’s ground transportation center and substation. This includes working with the Port Authority in managing reviews of developer designs and construction plans, overseeing technical portions of the developer leases and managing compliance of the leases during construction. Additionally, HNTB is managing community outreach activities to help identify and leverage the capabilities of local, small and minority businesses to maximize their participation in the Redevelopment Program.

Since 2016, HNTB has served DFW as the airport’s facilities program manager/construction manager, partnering on a diverse range of projects that have improved operations, set new industry standards for innovation and enhanced the traveler experience.

High C Gates Demolition & Reconstruction DFW updated the high gates in its Terminal C using a new prefabricated construction method, a first for a U.S. airport. Six prefabricated modules with metal panels and glazing already in place, were brought together to form the 80,000-square-foot concourse. The innovative construction method allowed DFW Airport to construct the new terminal space at the same time it was demolishing the existing location, causing less of a disruption to customers and resulting in saved time and money.

Integrated Operations Center This 40,000-square-foot facility houses 100 employees who monitor airport operations and emergency operations.

The single-story hardened steel and precast structure is built to withstand severe conditions, including an F5 tornado rating for all mission critical component areas.

Terminal D South Expansion The new Terminal D South Expansion project connects the future Terminal F to the existing international Terminal D. The project added a 150,000-square-foot concourse, four new passenger gates to accommodate wide body, narrow body and regional aircraft, concession spaces, modern hold rooms, a Federal Inspection/U.S. Customs corridor to accommodate international travelers, as well as a baggage handling extension.
