George Bush Intercontinental Airport, Houston's largest airport residing on 10,000 acres of ground, is the eighth-busiest airport in the United States, offering non-stop service to more than 150 cities and serving nearly 40 million passengers every year.
As a part of a multiyear expansion to revitalize what is for many the city's front door and satisfy projected aviation demands, Terminal C underwent a two-phase $112 million renovation covering nearly 3.2 million sq. ft., which concluded in January 2006.
