Summary

Significance: The warehouse was built during the vigorous construction which resulted after the Japanese attack of December 7, 1941. It was part of the supply system for the aviation operations of the Naval Air Station. The building is a unique design for industrial buildings of the period, an International Style building designed by the noted architect Albert Kahn, with features that reflect the scarcity of building materials during WWII.
