Finished in 1962 and designed by Eero Saarinen the former TWA terminal (Terminal Five) now sits empty waiting for a project.  The NYT reports on how the Port Authority is looking to get this space working again but I hope that its done properly.  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...
