ATLANTA — A joint venture led by HOK has designed the $200 million improvement to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport’s domestic passenger terminal and central atrium. The project is part of the airport’s $6 billion, 20-year expansion and modernization program. Construction will begin later in 2016 and include the addition of two 864-foot-long canopies over curbside pick-up and drop-off areas, as well as a redesigned central atrium space. The joint venture includes Stanley, Love-Stanley PC and Chasm Architecture LLC, which are both headquartered in Atlanta. In 2015, the 207-gate airport became the world’s first airport to handle more than 100 million passengers in a calendar year.
