East River Municipal Airport Update 6 May 2011


Snapshot_015

Structure for new waiting area has been completed, over the excavation that will partially be a water feature backing to the cliff adjacent to the terminal.  An openair courtyard has been installed that will connect the new waiting area to the old; the original terminal's security checkpoint and baggage area will not be relocated; however the baggage processing equipment behind the walls (formerly in the open service yard) has been relocated down into maintenance level under the terminal.  Airport operations are not being affected by these renovations; once the apron has been paved up to the new waiting area and windows installed, the new gates will take the place of the old and the decomissioning of the old waiting area will begin.
