拉瓜迪亞機場由LaGuardia Gateway Partners (包括Vantage Airport Group) 開發(fā)和運營，由HOK與WSP USA設(shè)計。項目致力于以高效且方便靈活的航站樓提高乘客體驗，同時以卓越的設(shè)計致敬紐約市宏偉與個性的建筑。

這座占地85萬平方英尺（約78,968平方米）的四層設(shè)施為乘客提供服務(wù)與便利設(shè)施，包括航空公司的登機手續(xù)辦理、行李托運、取行李處以及安檢。增添的功能還包括更多的餐飲與購物選擇。這個鋼結(jié)構(gòu)航站樓以其線狀、精確鉸接和動態(tài)形態(tài)，向陸側(cè)和空側(cè)呈現(xiàn)了一個現(xiàn)代而具有整體性的外觀。緊跟大中央公園大道和機場通道曲線的結(jié)構(gòu)取代了不連貫拼湊的舊結(jié)構(gòu)。

出發(fā)與到達大廳作為新B航站樓的連接點，通過一對450英尺（約137米）的鋼桁架人行天橋與兩個大廳相連。連橋的透明側(cè)墻高為65英尺（約19.8米），到達和出發(fā)的乘客可以在飛機滑行經(jīng)過連橋下時欣賞到全景天際線與機場景觀。

這些連橋不僅外觀美觀，它還將航站樓往大中央公園大道移動近600英尺（約183米）。HOK與Vantage機場集團合作采用的這一方法使航站樓加建兩英里（約3,219米）的飛機滑行道，以減少機場地面交通延誤。

團隊設(shè)計了一個簡單而直觀的動線網(wǎng)絡(luò)，包含了超過8英里（12,875米）的車行道和20座新連橋，提供了從機場到大中央公園大道和紐約市的便捷連接。這種復(fù)雜巧妙的路網(wǎng)為整個機場增添美觀性。出發(fā)與到達大廳前面的道路緊鄰著大中央公園大道，而它的立柱結(jié)構(gòu)與出發(fā)和到達大廳一致，提供了一個連貫的視覺效果。

“B航站樓的建筑設(shè)計是首屈一指的。我們很高興我們的乘客不僅能夠欣賞到它引人注目的視覺效果，同時能夠享受到利用創(chuàng)新理念改善的動線、舒適度和整體體驗，” LaGuardia Gateway Partners首席執(zhí)行官Stewart Steeves先生說道?！半S著拉瓜迪亞機場B航站樓邁入新的篇章，我們感激我們的合作伙伴HOK和WSP為項目提供了一個能夠載入紐約偉大建筑歷史的設(shè)計?！?/p>

 “拉瓜迪亞機場是紐約市最重要的民用建筑之一。我們在設(shè)計拉瓜迪亞B航站樓時把重點放在了將這座機場的品質(zhì)和體驗與紐約市重新進行連接，”HOK總裁兼紐約辦公室行政總監(jiān)Carl Galioto, FAIA先生解釋道?！拔覀兊脑O(shè)計理念主要集中在兩點：卓越的乘客體驗和從大中央大道觀望到的其建筑外觀部分。這座建筑其實象征著紐約 ——一個由島嶼和橋梁組成的城市，乘客從連橋就可以觀賞到紐約的天際線，從視覺上建立了與城市的連接。我們希望把拉瓜迪亞機場打造成能夠代表這個大都市的機場。”

“除了建筑本身，拉瓜迪亞的經(jīng)過改進的新道路網(wǎng)絡(luò)也與眾不同，因為它從一開始就被設(shè)計成機場航站樓整體外觀的一個關(guān)鍵特征，” WSP USA的首席運營官兼項目負責(zé)人Bernie McNeilly先生說道?！吧踔猎诘竭_航站樓之前就能改善乘客的情緒，讓他們感到非常舒適并給人一種即將開始一種愉快而舒服的旅行體驗的感覺。它為紐約提供了一個平衡了美學(xué)、設(shè)計和功能的世界級的設(shè)施，必將為在紐約游覽或旅行的人留下愉悅而難忘的印象。”

新的B航站樓對出發(fā)與抵達的乘客體驗給予了同等的重視。這種構(gòu)思挑戰(zhàn)了機場普遍采用的做法，即為出發(fā)的乘客提供最具紀念意義的空間，同時將低矮的天花板、類似地下室的區(qū)域留給到達的乘客。而在拉瓜迪亞新的B航站樓，出發(fā)和到達的乘客將同樣地享受到高聳、通風(fēng)、規(guī)模宏大的大廳。

 方便靈活、適應(yīng)性強、經(jīng)久耐用 

WSP設(shè)計了能夠適應(yīng)當前和未來的交通需求、在受限的陸側(cè)環(huán)境中逐漸演變的交通模式的轉(zhuǎn)變及便利性的道路網(wǎng)絡(luò)。它包括由現(xiàn)澆混凝土柱支撐的工字鋼梁以及多跨度鋼桁架承托的一層和雙層的橋路系統(tǒng)。多階段施工戰(zhàn)略使現(xiàn)有機場能夠持續(xù)運營，同時隨著施工的完成無縫地轉(zhuǎn)移到新的設(shè)施。

Designed by HOK and WSP USA, the project marks a milestone in Governor Cuomo’s vision for a new unified airport befitting New York City. With the opening this week of the new Terminal B Arrivals and Departures Hall (also known as a headhouse), Governor Andrew Cuomo’s vision for a unified LaGuardia Airport is becoming a reality.

The facility, developed and operated by LaGuardia Gateway Partners (which includes Vantage Airport Group) and designed by HOK and WSP USA, carries that vision forward with a highly efficient yet adaptable terminal that transforms the passenger experience while paying homage to the architectural grandeur and individuality of New York City.

The four-story, 850,000-sq.-ft. facility houses passenger services and amenities, including airline check-in, baggage drop-off and pick-up, and security. These enhancements are supplemented by extensive food, beverage and retail options. The steel-framed terminal, with its linear, precisely articulated and dynamic form, presents a modern, cohesive face to both the landside and airside. It replaces a disjointed patchwork of structures with one that closely follows the curves of the Grand Central Parkway (GCP) and the airport access roads. 

Connected to two island concourses by a pair of 450-foot-long steel truss pedestrian bridges, the headhouse serves as the nexus to the new Terminal B. From these transparent-walled bridges, elevated 65 feet above grade, arriving and departing passengers can enjoy panoramic skyline and airfield views as taxiing planes pass beneath them.

The bridges offer more than a sleek appearance. They enabled the design team to move the terminal 600 feet closer to the GCP. This approach, on which HOK collaborated with Vantage Airport Group, allowed for the construction of two additional miles of aircraft taxi lanes that will reduce airport ground delays.

The team designed a simplified and intuitive circulation network comprising over eight miles of new roadway and 20 new bridges that provide an effortless connection from the airport to the GCP and New York City. This sophisticated roadway network becomes part of the overall airport aesthetic. The roadways in front of the headhouse frame the GCP, and its column structures align with the headhouse design to provide one cohesive visual.

“The architectural design of the new Terminal B is second to none. We’re excited for our guests to enjoy both the striking visuals this new terminal offers as well as the innovative concepts that improve passenger flow, comfort and the overall experience for travelers,” said Stewart Steeves, chief executive officer of LaGuardia Gateway Partners. “As we move into this new era of history for LaGuardia’s Terminal B, we’re grateful to our partners HOK and WSP for creating an aesthetic worthy of the great design history of New York.”

“LaGuardia Airport is one of New York City’s most significant civic buildings. Reconnecting the experience and quality of this airport with its extraordinary city was the prime focus of our design work at LaGuardia Terminal B,” said Carl Galioto, FAIA, HOK’s president and New York office managing principal. “Our design concept focuses on two main components: a superior passenger experience and an exterior architectural expression that conveys a civic presence from the Grand Central Parkway. The building is a metaphor for New York, a city of islands and bridges, and the terminal is connected to the city with views of the skyline from the passenger bridges. Our ambition was to help transform LaGuardia into an airport with a distinct civic identity worthy of this metropolis.”

“In addition to the building itself, LaGuardia’s new and improved roadway network is unlike any other, in that it was designed from the beginning as a critical feature of the overall airport terminal aesthetic,” added Bernie McNeilly, WSP USA’s chief operating officer for transportation and principal-in-charge of the project. “Even before passengers arrive at the terminal, they will get a satisfying sense that things have changed for the better here and will set in motion a more pleasant, comfortable travel experience. It provides New York with a world-class facility that balances beauty, design and function, and leaves those visiting or traveling through the city with a positive and memorable impression.”

The new Terminal B treats arrivals and departures with equal emphasis. This challenged the widespread practice among airports of offering the most monumental spaces to departures while relegating low-ceilinged, basement-like zones to arrivals. At LaGuardia’s new Terminal B, incoming and outgoing passengers will share soaring, airy, grand-scaled sequences.

 Flexible, Adaptable and Enduring 

WSP designed the roadway network to accommodate current and future transportation demands, evolving transportation mode shifts and accessibility in a constrained landside environment. It consists of precast bulb-tee beams spanning to cast-in-place concrete piers and multi-span continuous steel girder bridges with one- and two-level roadway structures. The construction phasing strategy enabled continual operation of the existing airport while seamlessly shifting to the new infrastructure as construction was completed.

Inside the terminal, all check-in and passenger screening areas are located on the third floor. As needs change, this location will give Terminal B the adaptability to accommodate evolving security screening and technology. Instead of providing rigid parameters for each of its airline tenants, the ‘common-use’ design allows airlines to move easily within the terminal, expanding or shrinking their footprints within the terminal.

The sustainable design strategies in the new Terminal B, which is targeting LEED Silver certification, include generous use of non-glare daylighting, passive shading, natural local materials and storm resiliency. The efficient new infrastructure and layout will reduce the airport’s overall carbon footprint due to lower fuel demands from taxiing aircraft.
