Key points The project was made possible by Measure B, which was passed by voters in 2016. It is set to open to the public on October 13.
A new terminal building has been completed at Hollywood Burbank Airport. The project, known as Elevate BUR, was finished on time and on budget. It is set to open to the public on October 13. The $1.3 billion terminal will replace the existing one, which opened in 1930 and will eventually be demolished.
The old terminal is not up to code and is too close to the airstrip. A new entrance will be located at Winona Avenue and Hollywood Way. The project was made possible by Measure B, which was passed by voters in 2016.
Further details about the new terminal are available, including a sneak peek inside the building.
