説明 | The Neo-futuristic "thin shell" concrete design of the TWA Flight Centre (Adjacent to Terminal 5 at JFK) was executed to Eero Saarinen's plan despite the unexpected death of this noted Finnish-American architect at age 51 in 1961. Opening after his death, in 1962, it closed as a passenger terminal in 2008. The building has been imaginatively redeveloped as the TWA Hotel; the only hotel actually situated on the JFK complex. Central to marketing and re-design was the installation of cosmetically restored Lockheed Starliner N8083H on the portion of original apron that survives. This is an original TWA airliner, lovingly restored from near derelict condition to form a centre-piece cocktail bar and visual landmark for the new hotel. |
