Project Description: The corporate operations of a major international company are headquartered in Cincinnati. To facilitate access to its wide-spread facilities, a small fleet of planes is housed at the city’s Municipal Lunken Airport. Because the former facility was too small to accommodate newer and larger planes, it was necessary to build a new hanger. Both zoning and building code appeals were required to allow the facility to comply with both FAA regulations, and local building and zoning limits. Preview worked with the design team to prepare and present the appeals.
