Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport $326M Expansion Starts McCarthy Building Cos. photo

In 2024, more than 52 million travelers passed through Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. It was the busiest year for the airport, which is Arizona’s most powerful economic driver — generating an estimated $44.3 billion annually. To stay ahead of the almost constant growth in passenger traffic and today’s larger aircraft, the airport in April broke ground on a $326 million expansion that will add six gates to Terminal 3 and, the project’s partners say, support Phoenix Sky Harbor as “America’s Friendliest Airport.” “We’re always looking at different and innovative ways to maintain construction but also maintaining all operations — and passenger experience is always the priority,” said Brandon Moon, vice president of operations of McCarthy Building
Cos., the contractor for the 173,000-sq.-ft. multilevel concourse. Terminal 3 handles 25 percent of the airport’s passenger traffic annually. “Everything that we look at we look at through the lens of, how is this going to affect operations?” Moon added. “How is this [construction] going to affect the passenger? — and let’s make sure that we don’t impact them.” The new North 2 Concourse is designed by HOK in collaboration with DFDG Architecture. The project is pursuing a minimum of LEED Silver certification through the U.S. Green Building Council. The concourse is part of an expedited development plan, said Roxann Favors, assistant aviation director for the Phoenix Airport systems and interim chief development officer. The multi-level design includes: see AIRPORT page 2
