13 CHAPTER THREE CASE STUDY APPROACH Figure 9 shows examples of airports that have addressed a variety of reuse situations. Table 4 provides a summary of each case study discussed in this synthesis. FIGURE 9 Different examples of reuse. (Source: KRAMER aerotek, inc., 2010.) How airports redeploy physical assets is an important and timely issue for airport executives and property managers. Although each situation holds its special circumstances, a case study approach provides a useful framework from which to synthesize and draw conclusions about how air- ports have evaluated their situation and addressed facil- ity reuse. The key components of each case study are (1) description of the situation, (2) discussion of reuse options, (3) analysis of special issues and outcomes, and (4) reflec- tion on lessons learned from successful (and unsuccessful) instances of adaptive reuse. Ten case studies were developed. Figure 8 shows the loca- tion of each. Pittsburgh offered two case studies of reuse that are substantially different. Each of the other airports repre- sents one case study. In addition to geographic distribution, the case studies were also selected to reflect different types of aviation facili- ties and different outcomes. This synthesis looked at reuse of terminals, cargo facilities, military base reuse, maintenance facilities, and training centers. FIGURE 8 Location of case studies.
