How an Abandoned JFK Terminal Became the TWA Hotel

The TWA Hotel, located at JFK Airport, is a $265 million project that revitalizes the iconic TWA terminal designed by Aero Saranan. The hotel features the world's largest lobby and unique design elements like penny tiles and thick glass to minimize noise. Developer Tyler Morse discusses the challenges faced, including competition from Donald Trump and dealing with numerous government agencies. Despite high construction costs and regulations, the hotel is seen as a promising investment due to the growing travel industry. The hotel markets itself independently, avoiding online travel agencies, and aims to serve both travelers and the local community.
