The 336’ tower replaces the current tower and is the fourth tallest air traffic control tower in the South. The tower is topped with an 850-square-foot cab. At the base of the tower is a 24,850-square-foot facility that includes administrative offices, training areas and an expanded radar approach for controlling traffic.
A parking lot, environmental support building, roadways, perimeter security and appurtenances are also included. Work on the project also included the demolition of the existing cast-in-place concrete tower and the single story TRACON base building with a full basement.
