I'm far more impresseed by the elevated rail they are adding. I wish they connected it to Laguardia, Penn station, downtown Mahattan, Newark (as Heathrow or Schiphol did), but I guess the car mafia will not let them.
Airport architecture is hideously ugly an unimaginative - basically a maze of tunnels covered by a cheaply made outer shell - one needs to be a mole to appreciate that. Sharp contrast with the gothic splendor of RR stations - magnificent from inside and outside just as gothic cathedrals are.
