Curtiss-Wright Hangar, Historic airplane hangar at Jim Hamilton Airport, Columbia, United States.
The Curtiss-Wright Hangar at Jim Hamilton – L.B. Owens Airport in Columbia consists of a central storage area under a metal-clad barrel roof, flanked on either side by flat-roofed wings. Curtiss-Wright built it in 1929, and it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.
Curtiss-Wright built the hangar in 1929 at what became Owens Field Municipal Airport. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1998. A restoration finished in 2018, after which Hunter-Gatherer Brewery began serving craft beers and specialty foods there.
Since 2018 the hangar has housed the Hunter-Gatherer Brewery, which serves craft beers and specialty foods in the former storage hall. The building's name comes from Curtiss-Wright, the aviation company that put it up in 1929.
The hangar is located on the Jim Hamilton Airport grounds and welcomes visitors throughout the day. Inside, you will find a brewery offering food service and spaces designed for gathering with others.
The hangar's central barrel-roofed bay is flanked by two flat-roofed wings, a layout built in 1929 by Curtiss-Wright. After restoration finished in 2018, the Hunter-Gatherer Brewery moved in and now pours craft beer beneath the old roof.
