Reus Airport Control Tower
Tarragona, Spain
Service: Detailed Design and Construction Supervision
Client: Aeropuertos Españoles y Navegación Aérea (AENA)
Period: 1997 – 1998
This airport control tower is part of the Reus’ military afirfield facility. The existing tower required many repairs and improvements. In response, GPO proposed the demolition of the existing landing light and the construction of a replacement. This is a challenging intervention because it prevents the airport control tower from being used during the four months of construction. The new tower is designed as a hexagon with 15-foot sides.
