Executive Summary
From September 2010 through February 2011, SEH and Architectural
Alliance International were engaged by the Cheyenne Regional Airport to
develop a schematic design option for a potential new terminal.
The basis of this design was the 10 March 2008 Cheyenne Regional
Airport Terminal Feasibility Study, which studied projected future demand
to determine the appropriate size and scope of a future terminal. The
Feasibility Study projected annual enplanements to reach 28,900 by
the year 2027. In addition, the Feasibility Study examined a number of
potential locations for the future terminal, including redevelopment of the
existing terminal site as well new potential sites. The Feasibility Study
recommended Site 3A, located due East of the existing terminal site,
accessed from the redeveloped Airport Parkway. A Conceptual Design was
proposed as part of the Feasibility Study.
The Schematic Design effort took the recommendation of Site 3A and
the programming and Conceptual Design work of the Feasibility Study as
a launching point. The Schematic Design addresses operational needs
for the airlines and passenger service improvements such as adequate
gate hold seating, pre-security waiting areas, security checkpoint layouts
capable of handling current and potential future needs, mechanical and
electrical system upgrades, more easily maintainable and aesthetically
pleasing finishes, and a strong design presence for the terminal as a
representation of the city of Cheyenne and its surrounding region.
Desired capacity was based upon service of two simultaneous Regional
Jet departures in regularly scheduled domestic passenger traffic (60 seats
per aircraft for a total of 120 seat gate hold capacity). This capacity was
further supported by the potential to service narrow body jets in charter
operations and the potential to handle diverted flights from Denver.
Executive Summary
1.01
Working from the Conceptual Design solution, the preferred Schematic

Design was developed through a series of Design Workshops with the
full Airport Board and additional meetings with Airport Staff. Through
refinements based both on current conditions and reassessments of
previous decisions, a revised program was reached to better meet longterm facility needs. After three workshops, Scheme 2C was selected
by the Airport Board as the preferred alternative. A two-level facility
(with additional partial basement) and accommodations for significant
concession space is proposed, with accommodations for additional
future expansion. The proposed Schematic Design totals 36,000 sf. This
compares to 30,400 sf in the Feasibility Study program document, and
35,000 sf in the Conceptual Design.
Probable construction costs for the terminal building are projected to be
$297 per square foot, for a total construction cost of $10,700,000. (See
Connico Preliminary Rough Order of Magnitude Estimate, provided under
separate cover, for detailed information regarding terminal project cost.)
Probable construction costs have been estimated at $3,200,000 for the
new parking lot and related access improvements and $2,500,000 for the
new apron. (See SEH supporting documents, provided under separate
cover, for detailed information regarding site work costs.) Together,
probable construction costs for the new terminal and site work are
estimated at a total of $16,400,000. Probable construction costs do not
include design fees.

Sense of Place Design Process

VISION AND SENSE OF PLACE
A communitys airport plays an important role in communicating the
regions image to the rest of the world. The airport is the gateway to the
region for a great number of visitors each year and the first and last thing
travelers see. It is also the place that welcomes home residents of the
Cheyenne region, and it should be a great source of pride. An overall
coordinated vision benefits the long-term and incremental growth of
airport facilities and helps unite planning and design efforts over many
years.
Sense of Place Boards
Developed concurrently with the terminals programming and early

building and site design, Sense of Place research was conducted to
inform how the design relates to the site, as well as inspire the buildings
forms and materials.

Cheyenne Sense of Place Research

Referred to as The Magic City of the Plains Cheyenne, the capital of Wyoming, is the gateway to natural wonders, relics of the frontier, and outdoor
recreation. Research was conducted to identify historical, cultural and
physical attributes important to the city and region resulting in a collection of representative imagery ranging from industry, architecture, topography and cultural influences. The goal of this task was to determine the
most appropriate and meaningful imagery that best conveys the spirit of
Cheyenne.
Key Findings:
A Junction of Railroads- influencing history (first transcontinental
railroad) industry, and culture
Topography/Landscape - unique landforms , arid plains, and
wildlife
Architecture - style, material, and form
Culture/Heritage - western frontier and cowboy heritage
The development of an all-encompassing design concept relating to
certain physical or cultural aspects of the area can contribute greatly to
making the airport experience an inviting and memorable one. From this
regions unique topography and landscape to its frontier heritage and
deeply rooted western culture, it offers a vast breadth from which to draw
inspiration that embodies the most unique aspects of Cheyenne and the
region.

Cheyenne Sense of Place Research

Topography and Landscape
The topography and unique landscape of endless horizons, vast plains,
and outcropping landforms inspired the development of a color and
material palette reflective of Cheyenne and the surrounding region.
Important man made elements also characteristic of the landscape were
used to inform pattern, texture and form. Railroad tracks create a uniform
and linear rhythm and pattern cutting through the landscape while snow
fences follow the contours of the landscape creating weathered visual
texture and unique shadows . All of these elements contribute to a design
that is rich with sense of place and meaningful to Cheyenne.
Western Icon
Cheyennes deep western frontier heritage is an important part of the
citys past and present. There is strong iconic and identifiable imagery
associated with the cowboy and the cowboy culture. The craftsmanship
and design associated with saddles, cowboy boots, and western gear is
very artistic and beautiful. The tooled and embossed leathers, the silver
accents and the filigree patterns can all inspire materials , colors and
patterns for the interior design.

Architectural Design Research

At the beginning of Schematic Design, Architectural Alliance International
researched the unique qualities of the City of Cheyenne, its history, culture, and its relationship to the natural surroundings. Four main concepts
were identified, which in turn informed the main concepts for the design of
the terminal building:
Context
Context
Both the local context of the immediate site and the larger context of the
City of Cheyenne and the Upper Great Plains were carefully studied. From
the natural context, weve identified the regional weather, the prevailing NW winds, and the strong solar orientation as important elements .
Moreover, man-made structures like the snow fences and the railroads as
well as the vernacular buildings became a source of inspiration for parts of
the design.
Porch
Porch
The concept of a porch can be found at both regional vernacular buildings
and more contemporary designs, and functionally relates to the transitional space between the inside and the outside of the building. Experientially, a porch functions as the front door for arriving and departing
passengers.
Screen
Screens are architectural elements used to modulate and filter sun light,
control winds, and filter or screen views. Inspired by the local snow fences
and railroad cattle cars, these screens also have the potential of introducing dynamic and controlled patterns of shadow and light into the building.
Screen
Sustainability
With the belief that every buiding design is a careful response to its natural
and cultural sites, the schematic design represents an energy efficient
building that implements the sustainable strategies of daylighting, water
efficiency, use of local and renewable materials, and highly efficient mechanical systems among others.

Program Refinement
During the course of the workshops with Airport Staff and the Airport
Board, a number of changes were made to programming assumptions
developed during the 2008 Feasibility Study. These changes were driven
by changes in current conditions and reassessments of previous decisions.
Among the critical changes that impacted the Schematic Design:
Restaurant Size, Location, and Scope
The Feasibility Study assumed a large, signature restaurant and bar located on the second floor of the terminal that would be directed primarily
at Cheyenne residents rather than passengers. Based on the financial
difficulties of the existing restaurant at the current terminal, the recent
expansion of restaurant offerings within Cheyenne, and the significant investment involved in a large restaurant, the Board ultimately decided that
a smaller restaurant with more limited offerings, located to serve primarily
passengers would be more appropriate.
Multi-story Building
The Level Two program in the Conceptual Design was dominated by the
restaurant component, and when this was relocated, there was a question
as to whether or not the building should remain a multi-story building. The
Board determined that the multi-story building was still justified because
the cost difference was determined to be insignificant, the second story
gave the building additional presence on the site, it programmatically
made sense to separate the administrative functions, and because of the
efficiencies allowed by the partial basement.
Gate Hold and Security
The Gate Hold area was increased from a capacity of 60 in the Feasibility
Study to 120 in Schematic Design to allow it to accommodate two simultaneous regional jet departures (the ability to accommodate narrow-body
jets and to handle diverted planes from Denver was also a factor in this
decision). The Security Checkpoint was enlarged to allow it to accommodate the latest TSA requirements.
Design Process
3.01
Additional Concession Space

The Board directed that additional concession space (beyond the restaurant) should be included as part of the Schematic Design. These tenant
spaces may not be strictly driven by passenger traffic, so the spaces were
located at the east end of the terminal, where they are adjacent to the
short term parking lot. This location also allows for the spaces to be easily
repurposed for future terminal expansion. Further, this location would
allow the concession space to be modified or eliminated during future
design phases without significantly impacting the terminal layout. The
current layout shows three spaces totaling approximately 500 sf each,
capable of accommodating office or small retail tenants.
Airline Ticket Offices
Based on the success of the recently instituted American Eagle service to
DFW, the Board directed that the Schematic Design should accommodate
three full Airline Ticket Offices in addition to a dedicated TSA space. The
Conceptual Design had shown TSA occupying a future ATO space, but this
would have required TSA to relocate should a third Airline be recruited,
and left no swing space for charter operations.

Workshop 1
Workshop 1 was held on 27 September 2010 at the offices of the Cheyenne
Regional Airport. Present were representatives of Architectural Alliance
International, SEH, Airport Director David Haring, and Airport Staff.
The Feasibility Study was validated, especially relative to changes in
airport operations driven by the addition of American Eagle service and the
closure of the existing restaurant.
The design process was explained, and examples of previous projects
were shown.
Results of initial Sense of Place and Architectural Design Research were
presented.
Sustainability was identified as an important consideration, especially

to the extent that careful building design, orientation, and selection of
appropriate building systems could reduce long-term operating costs.

Workshop 2
Workshop 2 was held on 10 November 2010 at the offices of the Cheyenne

Regional Airport as a part of the regularly scheduled Airport Board meeting.
Present were representatives of Architectural Alliance International, SEH,
Airport Director David Haring, and the Airport Board.
The Sense of Place and Architectural Design Research was presented to the
Airport Board.
Four plans were presented that demonstrated options for the restaurant
within the new terminal.
Schemes 1A and 1B are both one level schemes. Scheme 1A locates the
restaurant adjacent to the Gate Hold for easy passenger access. Scheme
1B locates the restaurant to the west, for adjacencies to the Loading Dock
and Short Term Parking and ease of after-hours access.

Concept Sketches
Workshop 2
Schemes 2A and 2B are both two level schemes. Unlike the Conceptual
Design, which show the two level massing located to the East, these
schemes shift the two level massing to the West, still retaining a generous
double-height space at the Arrivals and Departures Hall and the Gate
Hold space. Both show a large, signature Restaurant space located at the
Northwest of the terminal to maximize views to the airfield. Scheme 2A
shows the Security Checkpoint oriented East-West, whereas Scheme 2B
shows it oriented North-South.
Sketches were presented demonstrating both a two level option and a one
level option with a high-roofed volume over the public spaces.
The Airport Board selected Scheme 2A as their preferred option,
demonstrating strong support for a two level option. There was, however,
some concern about whether the terminal could support a large, signature
restaurant. They requested another alternative be prepared demonstrating
a smaller scale restaurant located on Level One, but still retaining
administrative functions on Level Two.

Workshop 3 was held on 08 December 2010 at the offices of the Cheyenne
Regional Airport as a part of the regularly scheduled Airport Board meeting. Present were representatives of Architectural Alliance International,
SEH, Airport Director David Haring, and the Airport Board.
As requested by the Board at the previous workshop, two schemes were
presented. Scheme 2A is a refinement of the preferred plan presented
at the previous meeting with a large, signature restaurant located in the
northwest corner of Level Two.
Scheme 2C is an alternative showing a smaller restaurant located immediately to the west of the Gate Hold space, but still retaining an upper level
for the administrative functions and public viewing space. Scheme 2C has
the advantage of offering better service for passengers, while still maintaining strong views to the airfield.
Scheme 2C was ultimately selected by the Airport Board.

Workshop 3
Two alternate exterior expressions were presented. Both options show a

curbside faade dominated by glazing with vestibules projecting through
the faade, and both are anchored by large stone or concrete panels.
Option 1 utilizes a random patterned metal screening element along
the upper stories, used to moderate the solar exposure into the spaces.
Option 2 shows a more consistent upper faade of metal panels,
interrupted by large glass openings crowned by projecting roof forms
which act to shield the sun.
The options demonstrate two possible treatments of a curbside canopy
one a solid projecting element and the other made up of glass and steel.
The Board preferred Option 2, but expressed some concern that the design
was still too heavy or boxy, and further expressed concern about the
building being dominated by flat roofs. This concern was addressed in
subsequent refinements of the final Schematic Design.

The Schematic Design proposes a facility with primary public and airport
operations on the ground level, with public access from two entrances
along the curbside (one at Ticketing and one at Bag Claim) and additional
entrances from both the East and West Short Term Parking Lots. The
Ticketing Hall, Arrivals and Departures Hall, and Bag Claim together form a
generous public space that would be populated with welcoming soft seating and a fireplace lounge for waiting passengers and the public.

Located immediately adjacent to the Gate Hold, a Restaurant concession space is open to the public but primarily oriented towards meeting
the needs of flight passengers. The Restaurant and associated Kitchen
totals 1250 sf. In addition to the Restaurant space, the Schematic Design
accommodates three additional concession spaces at the east end of
the terminal, totaling 1500 sf of leasable space and 600 sf of associated
circulation space (this space is designed to be easily convertible to future
Airline Ticket Offices should future passenger demand require it). There
are also four Rental Car Offices provided, totaling 640 sf.

In the Ticketing Hall, the facility is designed to accommodate three Airline

Ticket Offices (ATO) with adjacent Baggage Make-Up spaces. There is
dedicated space for Transportation Security Administration (TSA) offices. The Security Checkpoint is designed to accommodate the latest
TSA requirements and to provide flexibility for future changes in security
requirements. The Gate Hold contains seating for 120 and two departure
gates with room for easy expansion to a third departure gate or the option
to add a passenger boarding bridge. There is a fully separated Deplaning
Corridor. The Bag Claim provides 50 linear feet of flat plate baggage claim
area, with space to accommodate a future T shaped device to provide
additional capacity.

A second floor over the west portion of the building would be served by an
elevator and provide administrative space and a large Conference Room
capable of holding Airport Board meetings with public seating. There is an
Upper Gallery providing views to the airfield and the Arrivals and Departures Hall for the general public and a Breakout Space with soft seating.
The Administration area contains four office spaces and support functions,
including a Kitchen. The Kitchen, Upper Gallery, and Breakout Space can
work in conjunction with the Conference Room to host public functions.
Lower Level, 5,300 sf
A partial basement is designed for provision of Mechanical space and easy
distribution to the upper floors through a Utility Tunnel. Storage space is
provided both for the Airport and for concession users. Additional space is
provided for storm refuge of up to 260 people. As the design progresses,
the exact extents of the partial basement will need to be determined based
on Mechanical and Storage needs (in concert with budget refinement).

The Schematic Design proposal orients the curbside faade to approximately due south, aligning it with the runway beyond. This orientation
allows for favorable solar access, bringing in south light which can be
modulated by sunscreening elements and deep overhangs, allowing for
more sun in the winter months when it is needed, and less in the summer
months when it isnt.
The south faade is grounded by light colored precast concrete panels at
the east end. These are envisioned to relate to the tones of the light sandstone that is found regionally, and will have texture and tones to enliven
them. At the ground level, there will be extensive glazing that is shielded
by the deep roadside canopy. The glazing will be penetrated by the two
vestibules and the rental car offices, which are envisioned to be clad in
wood on both the interior and exterior.

The building massing steps up to its multi-story massing, and at the far
west end is terminated by the stair and elevator tower, which is again clad
in the precast concrete panels.

The upper story of the terminal is clad in a mix of copper metal panels and
in select locations, large expanses of glazing that bring daylighting deep
into the space. These windows will be carefully located to take advantage
of views, and will be treated with sunscreening elements as their exposure
requires. Windows on the buildings north faade are able to bring in
daylight without concern about heat gain or glare.
The precast panels and metal panels wrap the more utilitarian portions of
the terminals airside, but the Gate Hold, Restaurant, and Upper Gallery all
have expansive views out to the airside and are treated with glazing and
articulated copper panels.

Building Sections
In response to the Boards concerns about a flat-roofed terminal design
and that the building looked too boxy or heavy during Workshop 3, the
exterior design was reevaluated. A Butterfly roof was determined to be a
good fit for the terminal, providing a light feeling roof with deep overhangs
to provide sun protection. This roof form allows water to be controlled effectively, keeping it from running onto either the curbside or the airside. It
also allows for rain water to be collected and retained for site irrigation.

Building Renderings
A continuous clerestory window immediately below the deep overhang
makes the roof appear to float over the building. The continuous glazing at the curbside makes for an easy transition between the interior and
the exterior spaces, with the fireplace visible and inviting. A smaller light
monitor over the ticketing hall brings sunlight into these spaces.
