Colorado Air and Space Port is an incredible example of an airport that continued to grow, built in 1984 with the vision of driving the economy in eastern Adams County by supplying an increase in air cargo and general aviation business. The vision was supplemented by the addition of two 8,000 foot runways, three full precision instrument landing systems(ILS) and ramps on the east side and west side of the airport. Colorado Air and Space Port was proud to establish controlled airspace after the opening of the tallest general aviation air traffic control tower in North America in 2005.
Always looking to expand on its 3100 acres of land, Colorado Air and Space Port supports local and state governments with the building of a Colorado National Guard armory, as well as the Colorado Department of Transportation Aeronautical Division and Colorado State Patrol office. Colorado Air and Space Port stands at the forefront of the future by maintaining a foothold in the technological development of sub-orbital flight and aerospace research and development.
