Joint US/Mexico Inland Port Breaks Ground

The masterplanned development at Gateway Airport will serve as the first ever US-Mexico inland port and customs processing hub.

SkyBridge Arizona and Graycor Construction Co. has partnered to break ground on the first two buildings at SkyBridge Arizona. The masterplanned development at Gateway Airport will serve as the first ever US-Mexico inland port and customs processing hub.

Located on 360 acres southwest of the runway at Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport in Mesa, Arizona, SkyBridge will use Unified Cargo Processing to complete on-site cargo inspection and processing so that shipments between the U.S. and Mexico can be expedited directly to their destinations in Mexico. The aviation hangar will total 82,500 square feet with four bays each totaling approximately 18,000 square feet with approximately 2,500 square feet of administrative and conference space. All bays will have full foam fire suppression systems and the ability to accommodate aircraft as large as a G650 business jet.

Architectural firm ADM Group and engineering firm HilgartWilson will serve as Graycor’s design-build partners for SkyBridge. Jackie Orcutt and Pete Wentis of CBRE have been selected as the project’s exclusive leasing brokers.
