Modern Aviation and its contractor Mortenson have broken ground on a hangar complex at Centennial airport in Denver, Colorado. The $20 million complex will feature a 7,000 square foot FBO terminal, two large hangars covering more than 52,000 square feet, 4,000 square feet of office space and 135,000 square feet for a ramp area more than doubling Modern Aviation's footprint at Centennial airport.

“Modern already has 7,500 square feet of FBO and office space and more than 50,000 square feet of hangar space at Centennial Airport, which continues to grow and is ranked as a top 10 general aviation airport in the U.S.,” says Modern Aviation CEO, Mark Carmen. “We are excited to build upon Modern Aviation Denver's consistent ranking as the best FBO in Denver and a top 10% FBO nationally by the Aviation International News Annual FBO Survey by adding a state-of-the-art FBO facility with additional hangar, office and ramp space to our existing infrastructure.”

Modern Aviation has completed development of two new hangars at its Seattle, Washington location, adding 64,500 square feet of hangar and 7,500 square feet of office space. In early September 2021 Modern also began a complete renovation of its FBO terminal there.
