SFO Terminal 2 - Air Traffic Control Tower

Blending Form and Function

This visionary renovation blends both form and function. The original air traffic control tower was built in 1954 and was in need to structural and seismic upgrades. Turner provided design-build services to demolish and reconstruct Terminal 2’s air traffic control and office tower, totaling 150,000 sf. The renovation features 180-degree views of the airfield from an indoor and outdoor terrace as well as core and shell space for a future café and lounge. The scope also included structural and seismic upgrades to the existing building while adding additional floors above the active terminal, and make-ready projects such as upgrading the airfield lighting infrastructure and adding a new boarding bridge gate and hold room.
