Narrative:
Cleared the ILS runway 27L ord. Contacted tower at wiltt and received clearance to land on runway 27L. Broke out at 400 ft AGL and picked up the runway environment at 2 mi. Passing through 300 ft AGL, noticed a B757 taxiing into position on runway 22L. Captain was flying and initiated a go around at approximately 200 ft AGL and overflew the B757. The first officer informed tower that aircraft was going around and shortly thereafter tower gave the command to go around as well. Initially, our flight was assigned runway heading to 4000 ft MSL then left turn to heading 220 degrees. Our flight was switched to departure and vectored for a second ILS runway 27L. The second approach was uneventful and landed without incident.
