TWA Flight Center (1962) by Eero Saarinen at JFK airport in New York City. The thin-shelled concrete structure was commissioned in 1956 by TWA owner Howard Hughes. It's one of Saarinen's signature projects, although he died in 1961 before the flight center opened.
After being closed for 16 years, a major renovation took place that included the addition of two new hotel structures behind the Saarinen building. It reopened in 2019.
In addition to being a hotel lobby, there are a number of dining/drinking establishments, historical displays and a gift shop. Besides a few kitschy aspects (like a Twister room), it's really well done. All-in-all the restoration as well as the reprogramming of the space is incredible.
Obviously a lot of Saarinen Knoll furniture.

There's even a TWA plane parked in back.
It's a bar.
This is one of the TWA hotel buildings. I can't imagine there being a single building anywhere with more womb chairs than that. Although I almost had the chance to stay at the hotel because I missed my return flight home, it didn't happen on this trip.
