Realterm celebrates the completion of our Northeast Cargo Campus at O’Hare International Airport alongside the Chicago Department of Aviation (CDA), Mayor Brandon Johnson, Worldwide Flight Services (WFS), and BOWA Construction. The completed cargo campus encompasses about 900,000 square feet of facility space with parking for 13 jumbo freighters, supporting approximately 2,200 cargo jobs on site.
This third and final phase of the Northeast Cargo campus features:
• An additional 130,000 square feet and two aircraft parking positions to the existing cargo area
• Processes more than 100,000 metric tonnes of cargo per year
• Features an array of more than 2,500 solar panels on the roof that can generate an estimated 1.25 million kilowatt-hours of electricity annually.
Phase III of the Realterm Northeast Cargo campus achieved a participation rate of 55% for minority- and women-owned businesses, with more than $23 million of the project’s $43 million cost spent with diverse firms. The project created 340 full-time construction jobs and another 180 full-time permanent jobs at the completed facility.
