Hangar 9, Brooks Air Force Base, Military aircraft hangar at Brooks Air Force Base, San Antonio, United States
The wooden structure extends over 8,700 square feet with a broad gambrel roof supported by massive wooden trusses and features sliding doors for aircraft movement.
Constructed in 1918 during World War I, this facility stands as the oldest surviving United States Air Force aircraft storage and repair building in its original location.
The hangar transformation from a military facility to an events venue represents the adaptation of military heritage sites for community gatherings in Texas.
The venue accommodates 580 guests with provided furnishings including round tables, white padded chairs, and table linens for various social and corporate functions.
Among sixteen identical hangars built at Brooks Field in 1918, this structure remains the sole survivor and contains the original exposed wall studs and roof trusses.
