Terminal E (ISEP)
Bush Intercontinental Airport
Houston, Texas

Terminal E (ISEP) is Continentals latest Flagship Terminal, which brings a new level of
amenities and convenience to their hub at George Bush Intercontinental Airport. This
massive, 600,000 SF facility is a “U”-shaped 23 gate double pier expansion serving as
primary international arrivals for Continental, but also providing domestic capability as well.
This expansion is housed in a three story steel frame structure that is clad in metal panels
and energy efficient glazing. The two wings provide a double-loaded concourse with
comfortable gate lounges overlooking views of aircraft operations. At the third level, above
the lounges, are corridors for arriving international passengers leading to a connector
bridge and the FIS inspection station that are accessed by segregated vertical circulation
cores. These corridors have views either onto the airfield or into the double-height boarding
level concourse providing the arriving passenger a pleasant passage while walking or on
moving sidewalks. At the center of the landside connecting corridor, an elliptical building
module, glazed in blue, accentuates the merging of passengers from both wings as they
transition from Terminal E to the FIS building.
