TWA Terminal Could Be New York's Next "Boutique" Hotel | gothamist.com

Well this could be interesting? Seems that the Port Authority has finally come up with something to do with the much beloved Eero Saarinen-designed TWA terminal 5 at JFK. And that something is...a boutique hotel. When JetBlue took over Terminal 5 they built their new terminal around the Saarinen original in the hopes of one day using it as a grand entrance. But that plan fell through (the old girl just can't handle modern amenities like curbside check-in and all those pat-downs), leaving the modernist icon empty.
