New CLT Air Traffic Control Tower is a tall drink of water -

Went into service 2/22/2022.

"The new tower is the fifth busiest tower in the world and the second tallest FAA tower in the National Airspace System (NAS), behind the 398-foot tower at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. Construction began in the spring of 2016 and provides the FAA with adequate space to operate CLT’s expanded airfield and enough height for air traffic controllers to have a clear view of the entire airfield. The estimated final cost of the project is $95 million."
