Madras Army Air Field North Hangar (Madras, Oregon)
Description
National Register of Historic Places (Listed, 2015), The Madras Army Air Field North Hangar, constructed on the former Madras Army Air Base three miles northwest of the city of Madras, Oregon, is significant for its role in the mobilization and training of pilots from the U.S. Army Second and Fourth Air Forces during World War II. The Air Field was constructed in 1943 to accommodate bombardment squadrons and training for B-17 Bomber pilots. The rapid transformation of empty wheat fields into a fully-functioning air field and base stands as one of few local reminders of one of the nation’s outstanding war-time emergency projects. The North Hangar is also significant under as a rare, intact example of a World War II-era military aircraft hangar. The use of wood construction reflects the local environment, incorporating regionally abundant and inexpensive materials while meeting the Army’s demands for efficient construction. Relatively untouched except for early exterior changes following the war period, the hangar retains extremely high integrity, with the original materials and features still present and maintaining an exceptional association with its original setting due to continued aviation operations on the site.
