Unveiling of Orlando International Airport's world-class new South Terminal C (MCO)
​
As an Associate Architect of Record, MLM helped Orlando International Airport’s South Terminal C provide a uniquely Orlando Experience at the world’s 7th busiest airport. The nearly $3B new terminal investment boasts 15 additional gates, hold rooms, shops, ticketing and checkpoints, alleviating congestion and a better passenger experience designed to add capacity for 10-12M more passengers each year. Both architecturally beautiful and technologically futuristic ahead of its time, Orlando South Terminal C was designed to create the next generation of a new Orlando experience. Natural light floods in through the skylights that run up the center of the structure, giving it a modern, airy feel as soon as you enter the building. The integration of architectural features, aesthetics, and amenities highlight Orlando’s central elements: the sky, gardens and water. Inside the 250,838-square-meter terminal, interactive screens display images of the region, allowing visitors to experience Central Florida in an interactive way.
MLM-Martin Architects, Inc. is incredibly proud to have worked with an amazing group of people for this spectacular project. We are so excited to help unveil this project after 7 years of hard work. And more is to come! Stay tuned for additional master planned growth on the horizon for additions to this South Terminal. Read more in the numerous news outlet stories, below.
