New York Offshore Airport Feasibility Study.

Abstract

The purpose of the study was to determine the technical and economic feasibility of an offshore airport for the New York metropolitan region. The study included analyses of a series of major tasks and subtasks which affect airport planning including air traffic factors, meteorology, airport design, oceanographic and geologic factors, facilities engineering for a site on water, ground access systems, and environmental factors. A multimodal concept was considered including a deep-draft harbor at the selected location.
