PDX Gets Back to its Roots with Engineered Wood | Building Design + Construction
Passengers traveling through the Portland International Airport (PDX) are in for a stunning surprise. The 81-year-old airport is currently undergoing a major transformation as part of the $2 billion PDX Next overhaul project. For the pièce de résistance, the main terminal building is getting equipped with a brand new, mass timber roof. The $1.2 billion main terminal redevelopment has been in the works for the last 4 years as the Port of Portland has worked closely with local design firm ZGF Architects, and KPFF Consulting Engineers to develop and perfect their vision.
