Treasure Coast International Airport Seeking Proposals for New 28,500-SF Hangar

The Treasure Coast International Airport (KFPR) has issued a ”Request For Proposals” (RFP) for the lease and operation of a new 28,500-square-foot hangar and related facilities for expanded development opportunities.

The state-of-the art aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) hangar, currently under construction, is one of the few new facilities available in the marketplace.

The hangar has a peak height of 59.4 feet, a 44-foot-high by 170-foot-wide hangar door, a 190-foot by 150-foot apron, and is protected by a wet automatic fire sprinkler/high expansion foam system.

The hangar will serve as the catalyst and anchor for further private development of the airport’s east side, which includes three adjacent two-acre parcels ready for immediate hangar development and several parcels that will complete an MRO campus.

The airport’s west side is currently being planned as a corporate hangar campus to be developed with a private sector partner or partners.

The RFP reflects current planning initiatives by encouraging proposals that include development concepts beyond the hangar itself.
