Over the years, Founders' Plaza at the Dallas/Ft. Worth Airport has become a favorite spot for families, aviation enthusiasts and Airport employees. The Observation Area offers magnificent views of many types of aircraft as they take off and land. In addition, the plaza provides convenient parking, picnic tables, telescopes, historic information, radio that broadcasts air traffic control communications from the FAA tower, and a a commemorative monument that was manufactured by our sign business...now known as Signs Now Dallas!
If you ever get the opportunity to go, it is great for a picnic, either in the grass or on the tables, they have free telescopes to watch the airport traffic.
One of the coolest parts of Founders Plaza has to be the speakers playing the real-time Air Traffic talk between the planes and the ATC Tower. It's awesome seeing a plane approaching in the distance and to hear the pilot radioing into the control tower. Did you know DFW is the only airport with 3 air traffic control towers? Me neither!
It's a pretty gorgeous view of the airport. This is definitely the kind of place to take the kids. It makes for a really neat experience.
Here are the guys constructing the granite monument sign at Founder's Plaza.
Certain dimensions and features of this monument have been established to represent significant facts about the Airport. The panels are symbolic of the Airport’s general layout.
1. The four panels represent the Airport's four original passanger terminals.
2. The 35" wide side panels represent 35 miles between Dallas and Fort Worth. The Airport's seal in the center symbolizes the Airport's central location.
3. The four center panels are bound on the top and bottom by horizontal bands symbolizing the Airport’s physical relationship between Highway 114 and 183 respectively.
4. The total height of the center panel is 8.11' representing the 8.11 mile length of the Airport’s property.
5. The overall thickness of the monument is 17.638" representing the 17,638 acres originally contained within Airport property.
The granite monument located in Founders' Plaza was funded by generous donations from the Friends of DFW, various civic leaders and community members.
