The new building will be a frame- stucco structure, two stories high with a full basement. It will be 54 feet long by 34 feet wide and will be lo- cated approximately 150 feet north and 40 feet east of the present build- ing at the airport. Robert Ritterbush is architect for the new structure. Office space will be provided for administration men, officials of the Northwest and Hanford airplane lines, the department of commerce and weather bureau officials. Also included in the building plans are a restaurant, a waiting room, and a kitchen. The basement will house all of the controls for the landing field lights and other field equipment, and the weather bureau observatory will be lo- cated on the second story.

Fifteen WPA laborers began exca- vating for the gas line, which will serve the building, and a crew of 20 others began digging the basement.
