LEO A DALY designed a 194-foot-tall air traffic control tower for Phoenix–Mesa Gateway Airport (PMGAA). The tower includes a 550-square-foot control cab accommodating up to eight controllers and is fully compliant with all current FAA criteria.

Our team is provided full architectural and engineering services. The expanded ground-floor base building houses FAA electronic equipment and storage rooms. The lower portions of the tower shaft are unoccupied and accommodate vertical circulation, including an egress stair and elevator, as well as mechanical, electrical, communications, fire protection, and NAVAIDS utility risers.

The upper tower shaft features a two-story expanded occupied ring that includes electronic and computer equipment spaces, a staff breakroom, meeting and training room, air traffic manager’s office, restrooms, mechanical and electrical rooms, and storage areas.

The tower is partially funded through the FAA Contract Tower Program. The new facility will replace the existing tower constructed in 1968 to serve the former Williams Air Force Base airfield.
