GAZ Realty Expands Business Line to Commercial Office Building and Newark Liberty International Airport Service Plaza.

2008 - GAZ Realty, Inc. was involved in a RFP (Request for Proposal) with the Port Authority of NY& NJ for the construction and operation of a gas station located at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey. The site will have a large gas station, double bay car wash, 3,200 sq ft. convenience store, light auto repair, and towing for Newark airport. We plan to open for business by July 2009.

Newark is a growing airport and with its close proximity of 16 miles from midtown Manhattan, has become a more and more popular airport for many travelers in the tri-state area. Presently Newark has 24,000 employees and once the expansion on Terminal B is completed, it will be 33,000 employees by 2011. Our site at Newark will be the first site with a captive audience from airport staff, taxis, limos, car rental, passengers, etc. In 2006, Newark had 446,000 plane movements, 35,700,000 passengers, and serviced 979,000 tons of air cargo and 95,600 tons of air mail. Lastly, the airport provides parking spaces for over 20,000 cars. More Details.

Since our press release announcing our plans at Newark, we have received inquiries from other airport authorities around the country. GAZ Realty's plan, once the Newark site is open for business, is to hire a full time VP of marketing and sales to promote this concept for other Port Authorities around the country.

In addition to the airport project, GAZ Realty recently purchased a 30,000 sq. ft. building in the beautiful village of Rockville Centre. The building is in immaculate condition, both physically and fiscally. We are in the process of updating the lobby and the elevator with Mahogany and Carrera Marble.
