LAX TWA Hangar

LAX TWA Hangar

The structure is frequently referred to as the TWA hangar and it is located at the Los Angeles International Airport. The study and concept design provided options for the removal of the east half of the hangar and retrofit for the remainder of the building. The primary user of the west hangar and central concrete core was Qantas, who performed daily maintenance on its Boeing 747 fleet. The specific locations of the retrofit in the west hangar allowed Qantas to remain operational during the retrofit construction.
