| Additional Information: | The Quonset hangar was erected on the current airport site in about 1959. It is of corrugated metal construction with a large sliding door in its south elevation. Two small, 4-pane windows are located in the north elevation. The building contains no other fenestration or embellishment. A private airstrip operated at this location beginning in 1959; this was purchased by the City of Lancaster in 1967 when it became the Lancaster Municipal Airport. |
