The Saratoga County Airport is getting $27 million in state funding for the construction of a new, state-of-the-art, energy-efficient terminal building, with modern amenities.

New York state has designated\u00a0 <\/span>$230 million in awards to nine upstate airports for revitalization projects that reimagine and further modernize airports across upstate New York.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Among the allocations will be $27 million\u00a0 <\/span>to the Saratoga County Airport for the construction of a new, state-of-the-art, energy-efficient terminal building with modern amenities that provide a first-class user experience and design elements that reflect the character of the region.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This funding comes from the Upstate Airport Economic Development and Revitalization Competition, a competitive solicitation which aims to promote, revitalize and accelerate investments in upstate commercial passenger service airports, helping to create airports for the 21st century.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to state officials, the new building\u2019s first floor will provide two spacious passenger waiting areas, a multi-media conference room, and a caf\u00e9 and ice cream counter that will open onto a courtyard with outdoor access.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span>The lobby area will feature a display area for automobiles from the Saratoga Automobile Museum, while the second floor of the building will provide space for pilots as well as a restaurant area and an exhibit area for local artists.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The hangar portion of the building will be finished with aged, reclaimed wood to mirror the look of the many Saratoga County horse and agricultural barns, while a solar array on top of the hangar roof will help reduce the airport\u2019s collective carbon footprint.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur upstate airports are our gateways to local economies and make lasting impressions, connecting New Yorkers and tourists to the beautiful destinations that the Empire State has to offer,\u201d Gov. Kathy Hochul said. \u201cBy making critical investments to further modernize facilities across upstate New York, we are lifting upstate airports to new heights and providing a 21st century transportation experience that travelers expect and deserve.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Upstate Airport Economic Development and Revitalization Competition was administered by the state Department of Transportation and was open to upstate commercial passenger service airports and airports providing specialized service for commercial aircraft and\/or corporate jets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Applicants were encouraged to apply for funding a single project or a program of projects that will help meet the demands of the 21st century. Examples of eligible activities included but were not limited to the planning, design and construction of: state-of-the-art boarding concourse and concession areas, terminal expansion or rehabilitation, improved security screening, opportunities to move passengers more safely and efficiently with improved distancing during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, new innovations in contactless technology and an increased focus on cleanliness and disinfection.<\/p>\n

Projects submitted for review by eligible airports were evaluated based on established criteria, including but not limited to innovation in design, passenger amenities and experience, operational efficiencies, and economic effectiveness for the airport\u2019s region.<\/p>\n

\u201cUpstate New York\u2019s airports are gateways that open the door for expanded opportunities in business, travel and tourism,\u201d said DOT Commissioner Marie Therese Dominguez. \u201cAs we continue to modernize our transportation network across the state, these investments will significantly improve the passenger experience and operations of facilities across the state, helping to ensure an efficient flow of people and goods, and continued economic activity across all upstate communities.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
