Viewed through the grid of Concourse A’s vast curtain-wall windows, a Delta Air Lines jet sits at the gate at Detroit Metro Airport, undergoing final preparations before departure.

The McNamara Terminal’s panoramic windows reveal the precision and coordination of modern aviation — a quiet balance of machinery, logistics, and architecture that defines one of America’s most important airline hubs.
