by Kristin Harlow September 2, 2020

SALT LAKE CITY — The first phase of Salt Lake City International Airport’s $4 billion expansion is now complete and set to open Tuesday, Sept. 15. HOK Architects designed the project, which features more efficient passenger flow, visual aesthetics, new amenities and high environmental standards. The airport serves more than 26 million passengers per year.
