Indeed, it isn't easy to sell a house that sits near a turbine. Julie and Bart Thiry of Kewaunee County, Wis., who live...
...access throughout and a security screening center with three walk-through explosives-detection machines capable of processing 2,800 passengers per hour. For meetings and layovers, a posh 298-room Grand Hyatt Hotel should take care of your needs. It's not all business, however: to enliven the commodious space beneath the building's 80-foot ceilings, the airport has added large sculptures, paintings, multimedia displays and mosaics. But to many, the real work of art is Terminal D itself...
