View of the Centennial Airport terminal building at 7800 South Peoria Street in Englewood (Arapahoe County), Colorado. The wing shaped entrance of the airport has a drive way wrapping around the exterior. A runway is in the background. A tall column supports the underside of the wing, which curves up to the edges that are lined with metal protrusions which represent feathers. The building was constructed in 1967.
