Designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM) in collaboration with Ross Barney Architects, Juan Gabriel Moreno Architects (JGMA), and Arup, The New Concourse D is the first major component of the ORDNext program. The new concourse will feature 19 flexible gates, naturally lit multi-level spaces, and welcoming environments for rest, dining, shopping, and play—redefining the passenger experience while increasing capacity and operational flexibility.
Currently under construction just south of Concourse C, the new Concourse D is scheduled for completion in late 2028 and represents a significant milestone in the transformation of O’Hare.
