Aviation real estate developer and operator Sky Harbour Group will increase the size of its pending private hangar project at New York’s Stewart International Airport (KSWF). Announced last year, the company’s leasehold will now expand from 12.5 acres to 26 acres, while the investment will also rise from $60 million to more than $100 million. Projected hangar space in the campus—which will also include a dedicated fuel farm for tenants—will double from initial estimates to 400,000 sq ft.

Vertically-integrated Sky Harbour manufactures its own prefabricated hangars in several sizes as part of its “Home Base Operator” concept of turnkey aircraft shelters. According to the company, the site plan for KSWF is still under development, but the facility will feature its SH-37 model, with the 37,000-sq-ft hangar capable of being divided into two 18,000-sq-ft hangars.
