The airport was founded in 1932 and has made a long way from an airdrome with several mail-planes and cargo-type planes to the international airport of federal importance, connecting the metropolis of Saint Petersburg with the entire globe. Nevertheless, up to 2013 the old terminal was used for serving the passengers, it was built in the 70s of the XX century. Having the idea of necessity of modernization, the administration of Saint Petersburg authorized the plan of the airport development, which particularly included the building of a new centralized passenger terminal. The Grimshaw Architects Company designed the architectural composition, and the administration of the airport was delivered to the Northern Capital Gateway Consortium, which includes VTB Bank Europe, the Fraport Company administrating the airport of Frankfurt, and the Greek Copelouzos Group. The new Pulkovo terminal was open in 2013.
