Parkway was retained by Virgin Galactic to execute a series of high-profile design-build projects, including the Delta Class Spaceship Campus at Mesa Gateway Airport.
This state-of-the-art facility spans 167,529 square feet and consists of two expansive hangars designed for the assembly of Virgin Galactic’s next-generation Delta spaceships. The campus, covering an area equivalent to over two football fields, houses four assembly bays capable of producing up to six Delta spaceships annually.
This project highlights Parkway’s advanced aerospace construction capabilities and commitment to supporting Virgin Galactic’s ambitious space exploration goals. Parkway was also engaged to complete two more projects for Virgin Galactic in Southern California: a four-story headquarters in Orange County and an integration testing facility in Irvine. These facilities underwent extensive tenant improvements, design enhancements, and security upgrades to meet the specialized needs of the aerospace industry.
