McNamara Terminal Expansion

Northwest Airlines’ Phase II project to improve and add gates to the McNamara Terminal began in the Spring of 2004. Nine jet gates are being added to Concourse B (for a total of 17) and 16 RJ-compatible gates are being added to Concourse C (for a total of 41) along with luggage handling systems, moving walkways, escalators, etc. Various aspects of the project will come on-line in stages, and you can see new structural steel changing Detroit Metro’s skyline. The jet gates should be done by the end of February 2005 and the entire Phase II project should be complete in Summer 2006, when the McNamara Terminal will total 122 gates.
