Aviation Museum | South Francisco Airport, San Francisco, CA

The Louis A. Turpen Aviation Museum, the first museum located in an international airport terminal, provides learning about the development of commercial aviation and the role it plays in our everyday lives. Located in the SFO International Terminal, it is an architectural adaptation of the Airport's 1930s passenger lobby. The collection focuses on air transport with an emphasis on the West Coast and the Pacific region. The mechanical and plumbing systems for the project were integrated with the terminal's HVAC and life safety infrastructure. MDS provided full mechanical engineering services.
