The New Terminal One

As part of the Port Authority’s $19 billion transformation of JFK International into a world-class airport, the New Terminal One (NTO) is creating the global gateway to the New York metropolitan area. It is building a 23-gate state-of-the-art terminal that aspires to be among the top ten terminals in the world. The first gates are planned to open in 2026.
The 2.6 million square feet terminal will feature expansive, naturally lit public spaces, cutting-edge technology, and an array of amenities designed to enhance the customer experience. Travelers will enjoy world-class dining and retail amenities, as well as space for lounges, an indoor green space, and family-friendly amenities—all with memorable public art and a uniquely New York sense of place.
The New Terminal One is committed to local inclusion and labor participation. Its industry-leading focus on diversity and capacity-building opportunities includes a 30% minority and women-owned business enterprise (MWBE) participation goal in all work categories and the creation of over 10,000 total jobs.
The New Terminal One (NTO) is privately financed by a consortium of labor, operating, and financial partners, including Ferrovial, JLC Infrastructure, Ullico, and Carlyle. After breaking ground in 2022, the terminal is being constructed by a design-build team led by AECOM Tishman, which has managed to construct some of the world’s most iconic buildings, and Gensler, a leading global design and architecture firm. Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield is the Concessions Developer and Manager, leading the project’s non-aeronautical revenue platforms, including dining, retail, duty-free, entertainment, and experiential concepts.
