Riverside Hangar, Military hangar at St. Paul Downtown Airport, United States.
The Riverside Hangar consists of two parallel structures measuring 600 feet long, 168 feet wide, and 50 feet tall, connected by a wooden framework.
Built in 1942, this hangar complex served as a bomber modification center during World War II, adapting B-24 Liberator aircraft for military operations.
The building represents Minnesota engineering advancement through its innovative use of glued laminated timber arches, a response to wartime steel shortages.
Located across the Mississippi River from downtown Saint Paul, the hangar occupies 6.25 acres within the St. Paul Downtown Airport complex.
The structure received National Register of Historic Places recognition in 2007 for its exceptional laminated wood arch construction methods.
