==History==
The starport was likely destroyed when New Alexandria was [[glassed]].
During the [[Fall of Reach]], the starport came under attack by [[Covenant]] forces. During the [[Siege of New Alexandria]], an {{Pattern|Ceudar|heavy corvette}} took position over the starport and began to bombard nearby buildings, including the [[Traxus Tower]]. Later in the siege, [[Duvall|Sergeant Major Duvall]] requested immediate airstrike on the corvette from {{UNSCShip|Stalwart Dawn}} to allow multiple [[Egret Spaceliner]]s to flee from the planet. Despite orders to not leave the starport, [[6 Echo 2]]—one of the Egrets launching from the starport—took off but was destroyed by the corvette over the city. Thanks to the efforts of one [[SPARTAN-B312|SPARTAN-III commando]], two [[M95 Lance]] missile batteries were activated to cripple the corvette, allowing the remaining three Egrets to successfully evacuate, ferrying thousands of survivors off of Reach.{{Ref/Reuse|exo}}
