New Orleans has joined a small group of U.S. cities, including Indianapolis and Salt Lake City, that are building new airport terminals. Hailed as the city’s largest construction project since the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, the $1.02-billion North Terminal of Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) is within about six months of completion.
