The New North Concourse expansion will reimagine the traveler experience at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport (PHX).
The new six-gate concourse will feature gate lounges integrated with a variety of food, beverage and retail options, clear wayfinding and a sense of place.
The concourse will include new connections between Terminals 3 and 4 for easier transfers. A lower level will support airport, airline, and vendor operations.
HOK is serving as the design architect and lead structural engineer, with DFDG Architecture as the local architect. The team is working closely with the City of Phoenix to explore innovative design options that create a great experience for both passengers and staff while allowing for future flexibility and growth.
The team’s performance-based approach to sustainability aligns with the City’s and the airport’s commitments to environmental and social responsibility. The project targets a minimum of LEED Silver certification.
"We’re thrilled to collaborate with the City and DFDG on this new concourse,” said Justin Wortman, AIA, regional leader of Aviation + Transportation at HOK. “It will integrate sustainability and technology to set a new standard for aviation."
Construction is scheduled to begin in 2025.
HOK previously designed the 44th Street and Terminal 4 PHX Sky Train® stations for PHX’s LEED Gold-certified PHX Sky Train.
