Chicago Executive Airport (KPWK) and Sky Harbour Group have reached an agreement for the development of a Sky Harbour home base campus at the general aviation facility, the companies said Tuesday at NBAA-BACE. The contract calls for the development of some 25 acres in two phases, creating or sustaining hundreds of local jobs and generating as much as $550 million in economic benefit.

The new campus will join Sky Harbour campuses now operating at Houston Sugar Land Regional Airport, Nashville International Airport, and Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport. SkyHarbour development projects also continue at Denver Centennial Airport, Phoenix Deer Valley Airport, and Dallas Addison Airport. The developer targets airfields in growth markets with significant aircraft populations and high hangar demand.
