Masterpiece??? Hardly. While I am no fan of this facility, I don't think that "Giant Underground Control Center" properly describes what is going
on there.
As I understand, Mayor Pena wanted the airport in this location because he had friends who owned the land. The airport is built on the site of the
highest wind shear ever recorded in Colorado. Apparently, other people were well enriched, because, Pres. Clinton tapped Pena to be his
transportation secretary. There are many webpages dedicated to DIA, the general consensus is that it is a White Elephant.
As to the underground construction. It is large, and contains all of the baggage handling. United Airlines has a gigantic automated system, and all
other airlines use a more conventional manual system. However, it is all underground. As well, an underground train shuttles passangers to and from
the concourses.
Very notable is the tent structure that serves as the roof of the great hall. It is made of essentially boat sail material. This past winter, one of
the structures failed and ripped open in a snow storm. My guess is that the material has weakened after 10 years or so in the sun and will be a huge
problem for the airport in the future. It is allready one of the most expensive airports in the US to fly into and out of.
And if it is a center for the NWO, well, they could have done better.
