In the two pictures below, you can see the footprint of the old and new terminals overlaid on top of each other.

Being my main airport I'm somewhat embarrassed to not know this and I apologize if it's been asked previously but did the airport lose gates? It looks like the new terminal is right where the first couple gates for the C/D concourses were located.
