The first step in this important project involved finding a site that could accommodate this large/complicated use, and allow for the construction to occur in an expedited manner. Wendel
set up a scoring criteria for the site’s needs, and investigated a dozen sites for potential acquisition. Based on this work, and coordination with the Owner, Real Estate Agent, Architect and various Municipalities and Agencies, a site was selected adjoining Stewart Airport. It has been reported in the press that this site is the best site of all the proposals in Orange and Sullivan Counties.
