Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT) is putting the finishing touches on a new $1.7 billion terminal that will open sometime in October. A joint venture of architectural and engineering firms Gensler, HDR and Luis Vidal + Architects designed the terminal, and all systems and areas have been completed and rigorously tested.
"Construction and operational readiness aren't equal," Daniel Bryan, the consultant leading PIT's operational readiness and transition team, said.
Before the official opening date can be set and announced, PIT will conduct two public trial days, or dress rehearsals, where volunteers act as passengers to help make sure everything — and everyone — is truly ready for the big day.
