LEO A DALY provided master planning, architectural design, and engineering services for this 132-foot Air Traffic Control Tower (ATCT) and 8,000-square-foot Terminal Radar Approach Control (TRACON) facility. Strategically located directly across from the terminal, the tower was positioned to provide optimal visibility for air traffic control operations.
The project required significant site infrastructure improvements due to the FAA-designated location of the new facilities. More than 4,500 linear feet of roadway, water, sewer, electrical, cable, and communications utilities were installed to support the development. In addition, the airport’s security fencing and gate systems were redesigned to accommodate the new facility layout and operational requirements. All site engineering efforts were coordinated with the airport’s long-term plans for future general aviation expansion.
