I, for one, am glad they saved the building. I'm 55 and clearly remember travelling through that terminal many times as a young kid in the 60's and early 70's when TWA was our airline of choice between LAX, JFK, and the large cities of Europe. As a pilot, I'm at JFK often these days and one of the things that's so psychologically strange for me is that the old terminal building is now just an island all by itself, with the newer Jetblue terminal now occupying the space that used to be the live airside ramp area for the old TWA Flight Center.
