The TWA Flight Center was originally opened in 1962 at John F. Kennedy International Airport. The terminal closed in 2001 and, nearly two decades later, reopened as the TWA Hotel and included original details from the 1960s terminal. In 2019, EW Howell Construction Group completed the TWA Hotel Fitness Center. The space is 10,000 square feet and features futuristic equipment.

This project included the renovation of the new TWA Hotel’s Fitness Center. The new 10,000 SF fitness center features futuristic and best-of-the-past equipment such as sandbags, kettlebells, battle ropes, TEX and condition machines, as well as 14 Peloton bikes. Also included in the fitness center are locker rooms with 8 showers, and fully-stocked salon-style vanities.

Working on this project was a unique experience in terms of its prestige as well as the logistical and timing challenges that come with an active project site with many moving parts. EW Howell managed coordination of the design team, gym equipment design team, and other vendors and contractors to ensure the delivery of this project, which stands as a preservation of an iconic piece of New York history.
