Baton Rouge Municipal Airport

1. Air Cargo Building and Air Carrier Apron – $2.4M

Project consisted of demolition of existing heavy-duty civil paving, demolition of an existing aircraft hangar, and relocation of onsite utilities as required for new construction. The newly constructed air cargo facility totaled 43,000 sq. ft. with both conditioned and unconditioned spaces. A new loading dock was built to dock height requirements to facilitate transportation of cargo.

Once awarded the contract, Guy Hopkins Construction offered design changes, which resulted in over $100,000 savings to owner. Owner was provided a larger, all-new facility, which was completed in less time than allotted for original smaller facility free of original design inherent problems.

2. Office Building – 3.0M

A 15,000 sq. ft. terminal addition featuring office space on the second floor and parking space below. Glass curtain wall, True Stucco, and Insulated Metal Panels wrap the exterior to complement existing Airport finishes.

3. Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport Parking Garage, Phase III – $10.4M

This project consists of the construction of a new 245,000 sq. ft. five story precast parking garage for the Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport; including a new 180 foot long glass enclosed pedestrian walkway with an architectural standing seam barrel roof. The garage serves the rental car agencies and adds 566 parking spaces to the airport facilities freeing up other spaces in the garages in front of the terminal for use by the public. The garage is required to match the style and appearance of the existing garages.
