Abstract

The article describes the architectural design of Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix, Arizona. The airport's importance to the city's economy and culture inspired Wellington Reiter, an architect and dean of Arizona State University's College of Design, to sketch out a vision of its future. The architect conceived the highway pipeline into the airport as both a sort of utopian entry and a darker surveillance system.
