The opportunities are 1) the Gate Area West Wall and 2) the Gate Area Glass Wall.

The final artwork will be printed and installed by a specialty fabricator contracted by the airport. The design fee for the Gate Area West Wall will be $3,500; the design fee for the Gate Area Glass Wall will be $7,500.
