To handle the growing traffic and transform the facility into a modern international gateway, Lima Airport Partners implemented an ambitious capital improvement program, starting with this new passenger concourse and world-class retail plaza. Arquitectonica a new airport terminal leading to 21 gates and corresponding jetways, a hotel, a shopping plaza, airline lounges, baggage handling and pick up areas, and oversaw the renovation and upgrade of the existing terminal at the Jorge Chavez International Airport in Lima. The project required the interaction of existing elements with new ones and the planning for a new public parking garage structure.
