Moffett Field's historic Hangar One is an architecturally significant landmark important to people throughout the Bay Area and beyond. Restoration following the removal of its toxic siding will create exciting reuse possibilities. Please use your position as a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee to preserve the funding requested for its prompt restoration.

    • Leaving Hangar One exposed to the elements, because of delays in funding, will make restoration of this irreplaceable landmark more difficult and more costly.

    • I grew up in the shadow of Hangar One, having been born on the Peninsula, and living there for most of my life. My Grandma was a Rosie The Riveter there during The War, and I served our Navy there for four years. The Hangar is a Symbol of our will to reach beyond our grasp. It is an Art Deco symbol of the birth of Silicon Valley. It is important to keep it, as a big reminder of our ability to realize our dreams...even if they are bigger than life.

    • To me, Hanger One is a real historic landmark, and leaving it "naked" is both shameful and disrespectful of the US Navy's heritage.

    • I spent four years flying around in Navy SP-2E's and SP-2H's. Hanger One should be restored and kept as a monument to Naval Air's contribution..

    • A bay area icon. The hanger 1 makes Moffet a true land mark. Time in Navy and attended many USN airshows there. Would also bring jobs to the area.

    • I served at Moffett Field in the early eighties, though my unit occupied hangar two, hangar one was the landmark I looked for when returning from a flight. to destroy it would be an insult to those who built it as well as those who served in it or in it's shadow.

    • Is the hangar a landmark designation? I serve on the City of Napa Cultural Commission, and know that under NEPA & CEQA Federal/CA environmental law), they can't just tear it down if it does/could meet Federal requirements for a historic structure.

    • I was stationed at Moffett Field from 1972 through 1992, and spent may a day in hangar one. This is of historical significance and embodies the history and traditions of the US Navy. It would be a travesty to destroy this historical landmark. Please help save this icon.
