The original Storehouse (5A) was built in 1929 to house supplies. In 1938, a brick-clad addition (5B) was constructed to the south. A spur from the Northern Pacific Railroad Sumas Branch line to the naval air station was completed in October 1929. This spur ran along the west side of the Storehouse, providing an easier way to load and unload supplies. 5C was added in 1940, and 5D was added in 1943.

Building 5 became a mix of warehouse, workshop, and office space. The building is currently owned by the University of Washington and maintains a variety of uses including educational storage, offices, and research and art studios.
