The second level is a 14-lane passenger security screening area serving both terminals. The third level houses Division of Aviation offices and has a space for an airline club. Phase 1A that consisted of site work, building foundations, utility relocation and structural steel placement for the connector building is complete. Phase IB includes the building envelope, interior finishes, furniture, etc. to complete the connector building.
Phase 2 modifications include an increase of 23 ticket counter positions with larger queuing spaces, increased public circulation, new concessions, other tenant spaces and work associated with the D and E Bag Claim facilities. The Bag Claim buildings for Terminals D and E will be connected with a one-story addition that will contain two new baggage carousels with renovations within the existing D and E Bag Claims
Terminal E Concourse will be expanded in Phase 3 with the construction of a 2-level addition at the end of the concourse. Airline Operations space will be at ground level. The second level will provide hold rooms, concessions, rest rooms and operations space to accommodate three new gates and four relocated gates.
