Top Story: AZO Topping Out

2010-01-26

On Monday, January 25, 2010, KBCIA celebrated a "Topping Out" event at the new terminal building site. This ceremony is a milestone and a tradition in each project where the last steel beam is placed on the new structure. Prior to the beam placement, several people in the community and at the airport who have helped in making the new project possible, signed the beam and an American flag and evergreen tree were placed on top of the beam. It was then hoisted into place on the northeast wall of the structure.

The next step is to start the building enclosure process, one more step going forward to the targeted completion date of Spring of 2011. Construction updates and the new terminal photo gallery can be viewed on the airport's website.
