Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Launch Complex 34, Operations Support Building, Freedom Road, Southwest of Launch Stand CX-34, Cape Canaveral, Brevard County, FL
Summary
Significance: The Operations Support Building (OSB) is located in the Launch Complex (LC) 34 Area of the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (CCAFS). This one-story, 30,506 square foot (ft2) facility, built in 1961, provided laboratory facilities for measurement and calibration of telemetry and ground support equipment, network checkout, missile component checkout and evaluation, and pre-launch test and post-launch data review and evaluation in direct support of launch operations during the Apollo Program. At the conclusion of the Apollo program, the OSB remained a NASA asset, although many of the other structures within LC 34 were transferred back to the U.S. Air Force. At the time of photography, the building stood vacant. It is considered a contributing element to the CCAFS National Historic Landmark.
