Salt Lake City Airport has been undergoing a massive renovation/redevelopment project for the last few years. Basically they're building an entirely new terminal to replace the existing one, the stated reason being that the current one is not designed or rated for earthquake resistance, but I suspect the fact that the current terminal is a chopped-up mess that has been expanded multiple times might play a large part in the decision to replace it with a far more modern, cohesive, and easily expandable structure as well.
Anyway, the whole process from below ground upwards has been beautifully documented in photos from the start- https://slcairport.com/thenewslc/rebuild-progress-gallery/
They seem to be at the point now where they have to get the incomplete-but-fully-functional new terminal, particularly the new parking structure, up and running before they can begin tearing down parts of the old terminal to make room for completion of the new one.
