GE Johnson Construction Co. was selected to complete the next phase of the National Museum of World War II Aviation in Colorado Springs. The project will kick off with the construction of two 30,000-square-foot airplane hangars to house a collection of restored World War II aircraft and is expected to be under construction in April. The second element of this project is Aviation Hall, approximately 40,000 sf of museum exhibit space and 40,000 sf of education space, including offices, classrooms and laboratories, a small auditorium and training area. The museum space will include a large atrium capable of handling meetings and events of up to 1,200 people and will include a flight-ready, B-25 Mitchell bomber suspended from the structure. The museum is located at 755 Aviation Way in Colorado Springs. Additionally, the firm was selected to renovate an existing 9,857-sf private residence in Aspen into a $10.5 million modern home.
