When LAWA initiated a program to rehabilitate its outdated elevators at LAX, Miyamoto’s vital role in the expansion and restoration included the modernization of seven parking garages, seven parking structure elevator enclosures and seven exit stairwells and pedestrian finishes to fit the parking structure’s aesthetics. The scope of work  includes completing two new elevators in the terminal areas, new shaft extensions for the elevators, new structural steel framing to provide support for the new facade at the stairs and elevator shafts and converting the existing helipad roof to parking.
