Finished in 1962 and designed by Eero Saarinen the former TWA terminal (Terminal Five) now sits empty waiting for a project.

It would be a shame to let a building that symbolized so much and that is so beautiful go to waste on a shopping mall. Lets allow it to inspire, influence and teach our future architects, and everyone else for that matter, on how to build buildings that not only serve a purpose but look towards our future. Unfortunately today that is lacking...
