The busy Midwestern hub of Chicago O'Hare International is set to undergo a $8.5 billion revamp. This is a rendering of the new Global Terminal.

At the moment, O'Hare has a single international terminal that is separate from the domestic one, so passengers on connecting flights have to switch terminals. Similarly, the new terminal building will be Y-shaped, with a six-pointed glass skylight positioned at the meeting of the branches. The roof will be clad in wood, with pleats oriented to maximize natural daylight.At 2.2 million square feet, the Global Terminal will be 75% bigger than the existing Terminal 2, and one of the largest in the US. That will make room for several amenities including nursing rooms, yoga studios, and a variety of food and beverage options.
At the end of the entire project, gate capacity will increase by 25%, and the overall square footage of passenger terminals will go from about five million square feet today to just under nine million square feet.
