Hanger 1, Mountain View, CA 94035, US

Hangar One is a historic landmark located in Mountain View, California, known for being one of the world's largest freestanding structures. Built in the 1930s as a naval airship hangar, it now serves as part of the NASA Ames Research Center and covers an impressive 8 acres of land. Designed by Dr. Karl Arnstein and Wilbur Watson Associates Architects and Engineers, Hangar One features an aerodynamic architecture with curved walls and clam-shell doors. Its massive interior can accommodate six American football fields and was once home to the USS Macon airship. Despite its historical significance, plans to convert the hangar into a space and science center have been put on hold due to environmental concerns.Generated from the website
