Foster + Romero Alliance Wins Competition to Design the Mexico City Airport Expansion

A duo comprised of British architect and Pritzker Prize winner Norman Foster of Foster + Partners and Mexican architect Fernando Romero of FR-EE has won the competition to expand the Mexico City airport, Reuters has reported.
