Chicago O'Hare Global Terminal pushed to 2033 completion
The Global Terminal project at Chicago O'Hare International Airport has slipped to a 2033 completion, according to a report on the timeline. The delay overlaps with planning for a separate commercial airport about 35 miles south of downtown Chicago.
Chicago O'Hare International Airport's Global Terminal is now set for a 2033 completion, extending the timeline on one of the largest airport redevelopment projects in the United States.
The delay goes beyond the construction schedule. Illinois is also advancing plans for another commercial airport about 35 miles (56 km) south of downtown Chicago.
That leaves an unusual window: a greenfield airport could take shape while O'Hare remains in a prolonged transition.
