Goodyear Airdock

Description

One of the first trips I made on my current job was to the Akron OH area.

I thought I would look to see if Goodyear's airship hangar still existed. I was pleased to see the structure still standing.

This hangar was built for the construction of the ZRS-4 Akron and ZRS-5 Macon.

I have had a huge interest in dirigibles from a very young age and I was very pleased to see this!

Biggest single floor building in the world (for airships/air-docks, at least) now that the Cargo Lift airship hangar over in Germany, was turned into a "water theme" park! Love the air dock!! (Almost as much as Hangar One at Moffett Field!) Thank you so much for sharing this picture!! Please share more!!
