About Hangar 10

The federal government recognizes Hangar 10 for its heritage, one of 2 such buildings in Kingston. Its record dates Hangar 10 to 1953–1954. A.D. Margison and Associates designed it. One neighbour on the registers lies within 400 m.

CFB Greenwood is a large airbase set into the gentle landscape of the Annapolis Valley. It is defined by the classic A-plan of its runways; Hangar 10 is located with other service buildings between the legs of the “A”. Hangar 10 is a large oblong mass set on a plain of concrete aprons, asphalt parking lots and some grassed areas. It is identifiable as a hangar because of the characteristic uplifts along two sides of its otherwise flat roof from which hang the huge sliding doors that allow airplanes into the service bays.
