Stantec has redesigned the passenger space  at Terminal 3 in Toronto Pearson International Airport.  In the Departures level, stores and restaurants used to be in a narrow, dark area before passengers go through security.  Now they are reconfigured into a new area called Node C, which is full of natural light and accessible once through the security gates.  A large skylight now extends from the departures floor up through arrivals.
