Fox News
The tower, also known as the “terminal 2 ramp control tower,” was demolished on Monday as part of the airport’s latest phase of redevelopment to meet the air hub’s changing traffic, security and safety requirements. Under Phase II of redevelopment, obsolete buildings and facilities will be replaced to conform to the latest safety standards, among other projects.
The Delta Tower was originally built between 1989 and 1990 for use by Delta Air Lines, to direct the carrier’s own planes to their gates after landing. Delta has long been the largest operator of flights to and from SLC, according to the airport. "The tower, which stands at 84 feet high, continued to operate until The New SLC opened on Sept. 15 and the replacement Delta tower became operational," reads a press release issued ahead of the demolition.More Related News
