The above info is correct. The land was filled in, one of the reason the building is settled. Also the building was originally built as a one story building and additional story was added later.
The hanger style building was built by my dad and uncle back in 1950 for Goodhue. The materials were war surplus and was built to minimum standards. My uncle is surprise it is still standing!
