International Passenger Processing Facility

At Tallahassee International Airport, Fitzgerald Gray Hagan Architects served as associate architect in a joint venture to deliver the International Passenger Processing Facility. The users include TLH and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), with Fitzgerald Gray Hagan Architects leading concept design, core and shell (building envelope), and construction administration. The 2-story expansion introduces two new gates, a baggage carousel, CBP checkpoint with queuing and secondary processing spaces, CBP offices, a meeter and greeter area, and General Aviation Facility processing for private, business, and recreational travelers. 

The design establishes a contemporary yet contextual addition that complements the existing terminal while introducing a more modern identity through aligned form and material strategies. It enables international passenger processing in Tallahassee, brings CBP operations on site, and supports designation as a Foreign Trade Zone. The completed facility will expand the airport’s regional and international capability.
