Winner: Municipal Facility

In November of 2023, Miron Construction broke ground on the $66 million, 47,000 square-foot expansion of the main concourse for the Appleton International Airport.

The entire project consisted of 4,000 cubic yards of concrete, with over 10% of the project volume made up of lightweight concrete.

The project team was successful in achieving its goal of opening the new terminal in time for the 2025 NFL Draft.

The new design delivers a better customer experience, a more accessible design, and an added Biergarten in the gate area.  It increased the total gates to 10, helping the airport accommodate 1 million arrivals by the end of 2025.

For the draft alone, the airport was able to accommodate 272 flights and 50,000 passengers.

It was turned over to the city ahead of schedule in August 2024.  12,000 cubic yards of concrete were used for the project.
