Built in 1939 (with WPA funds), this large Landplane Hangar provided shelter for navy planes. It was sited across Avenue B (now 63rd Ave NE) directly southeast of Building 2 for proximity to the plane assembly and repair facility. It was also sited near the landing field which was east of the hangar. The flying field no longer exists. Two, two-story, steel frame with corrugated asbestos siding lean-tos (wings) were added to the Landplane Hangar (Building 33) using WPA funds. NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) is the current owner.
