The federal government recognizes Hangar 9 for its heritage, one of 2 such buildings in Kingston. Hangar 9 went up in 1952–1953. One other place on the registers stands 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 9 is located with other service buildings between the legs of the “A”. The hangar is a large, clearly identifiable mass with the characteristic arched roof and flanking brick towers that store the panels of the sliding doors. It sits in a flat setting of concrete aprons, asphalt paving and grassed areas.
