A state-of-the-art terminal replaced the original structure that served the community since 1948 without interrupting its operation. The new terminal has a unique energy efficient contemporary form designed to highlight Lycoming County’s signature logging history and to accommodate a second carrier

The pallet is limited to high performance glass, stone, and exposed steel super structure. The building form allows generous controlled natural light into all public spaces. Large sunlit windows and tall exposed wood decked ceilings create a modern, spacious atmosphere

The community has access to the airports large multi-purpose boardroom designed to be used as conference or classroom space, seating 45. It is supported by a small kitchenette and restrooms. The remaining administrative wing houses staff offices, storage, and a ready-room for emergency personnel

The open floor plan is accentuated with light gray tiled flooring cut with a fluid wayfinding pathway of multi-shaded blue tiles designed to replicate the Susquehanna River, which was a major economic influence in the Region.

The terminal’s design takes its clue from the simple airplane wing. This same parti is seen again in the sweeping form of the glass canopy. The sawtooth allows a glimpse of incoming and outgoing aircraft while allowing controlled natural light to penetrate the terminal.

The southern façade facing the runway is lined with windows to provide views of the airplanes and the scenic mountains.

The new facility efficiently processes increased passenger traffic through the building. Meeting FAA, Penn DOT’s Bureau of Aviation, National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS) and TSA requirements were also critical for this project.

The terminal provides modern travel conveniences including a full-service travel agency, a car rental service, a café, and ample parking adjacent to the new terminal.

The Williamsport Municipal Airport Authority received a one million dollar grant from the local Community Foundation Partnership of PA due to the new terminal was a high community impact project which will enhance the quality of life for Lycoming County residents.
