Crow Holdings has broken ground on a new air cargo facility at the Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport (MKE). The project will transform a significant portion of the former 440th Airlift Wing, now known as the MKE Regional Business Park, into a 337,000-square-foot air cargo facility featuring a dedicated air cargo building, a new Milwaukee County highway maintenance facility to support both county and state transportation needs and enhancements to adjacent taxiways to improve accessibility for wide-body cargo aircraft. The facility will have the capacity to accommodate five B747-400 aircraft at the same time and is expected to generate over $1.3 million in annual aircraft landing fees as well as over $1 million in annual ground lease rents and fees.
