Book excerpt: With the surrounding layout of both Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) International Airport and Dallas Love Field (DAL) Airport being shaped by and through differing contributing influences,one intriguing question for this diverse aviation region would be understanding the strategies for the resulting development adjoining both airports. Specifically, the purpose of this study is to create a comprehensive narrative of what dynamics (factors) influenced the development of areas adjoining both DFW & DAL Airports, and to understand how these airport-driven dynamics (factors) affected urban and economic development throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. Through a historical outlook of both airports, this study will reveal how firm and business agglomerations evolved, and how edge cities/communities or corridor businesses developed around both airports and how and why this has changed the design of the urban cores of the city of Dallas and city of Fort Worth. This narrative will be conducted through the gathering of past, present and future land development approaches and through utilizing a mixed method of data collection. The mixed method process will allow a qualitative survey of Dallas-Fort Worth aviation-related professionals and a quantitative comparative case analysis consisting of existing literature on land developments, documents, policies, and activities comprising the peripheral airport-driven urban core growth through various planning, design, and implementation stages. Also, this study has the deliverable of outlining critical development factors to assist future land planning strategies around other airport systems. The results suggest the significance of assessing local and regional development factors along with prevailing theories of land use surrounding airports. The combined outcomes present and suggest the most sustainable peripheral land development methods to help public/private stakeholders in the policy-planning and decision-making process. The conclusion of this research should lead to further analysis of effects that localized factors have, in conjunction with existing theoretical concepts, in establishing future land development surrounding airport systems.
