Touchstones of Design, by Curtis Fentress

Touchstones of Design, an avant-garde photographic publication by The Images Publishing Group, illustrates Curtis Fentress’ guiding design principles for public architecture.

Curtis Fentress lays out the foundation of his philosophical and pragmatic approach to public architecture, set against a backdrop of dramatic illustrations and design. More than 400 illustrations in color and black and white highlight Fentress’ best work while revealing the essentials of great public buildings, and how to successfully design them.

Touchstones of Design: (re)defining public architecture, was published in June.

Delta to Build New Terminal Space at JFK

An extension to be built on Kennedy International Airport’s Terminal 4 will be the new home of Delta Air Lines
international flights under a plan approved recently by the Port Authority.

The airline will occupy nine passenger gates to be constructed and up to seven of the building’s existing gates for a total of 16 gates. To accommodate the extra passengers, the international baggage claim hall and Federal Inspection Services processing capacity in Terminal 4 will be expanded. Schipol/JFKIAT will continue to manage the terminal.

Once the new gates are built, JFK’s existing Terminal 3 will be razed to make room for additional aircraft parking spaces that will help alleviate congestion on airport runways and taxiways.

The expansion of Terminal 4 is the latest in a series of projects designed to meet future passenger needs at JFK, which handled 46 million fliers last year. When this project is completed, all international terminals at JFK will have been renovated.
