“One final beam. One bright future.” That was the memorable slogan on a large banner hanging over the final steel beam for The Green Build Terminal 2 expansion at San Diego International Airport yesterday, before it was lifted into place at a “Topping Out” ceremony attended by over 200 Airport Authority staff, construction workers, elected officials, community leaders and media.
There are several ways to get a taste of yesterday’s excitement if you didn’t happen to be there:

Congratulations to SAN for reaching “Topping Out” in its Green Build expansion. I’m sure the project will tremendously improve the experience of passengers, employees, and visitors coming to the airport in 2013.
