Emergency Repairs Close Boeing Field Control Tower, Restricting Air Traffic

Seattle's Boeing Field control tower was temporarily closed due to significant roof leaks impacting the operator environment. ATC operations have shifted to a temporary facility located nearby, albeit with diminished functionality. The closure necessitated a reduction in operational capabilities for air traffic controllers at KBFI. Crews are currently engaged in emergency repairs addressing the extensive water damage within the tower structure. This situation is causing restrictions on air traffic approaching and departing from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport until further notice.
