Architectural Survey and Evaluation of NASA-owned Facilities on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station

Author(s): David L. Price; Mary Beth Reed

Year: 2014

Summary

New South Associates, Inc., conducted background research and a historic architectural survey of 12 buildings owned by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) that have reached the age of 50 years or more and are located on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (CCAFS). The survey was to determine if a historic district existed in the CCAFS Industrial Area. The nine properties within the eligible Hangar AF Complex Historic District were also evaluated to determine if those facilities should be incorporated into a potential historic district. These facilities were evaluated for their eligibility to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) as a historic district, an individually eligible property, or as a contributing resource to the district. The survey resulted in the recommendation that the facilities do form a historic district with a discontiguous boundary, and that two of the buildings – Hangar S and Missile Assembly Building AE (also known as Hangar AE) – are individually eligible to the NRHP and contribute to the newly-identified historic district, “NASA-owned CCAFS Industrial Area Historic District.” Hangar AE was previously determined individually eligible under the 45-50 Year Historic Survey performed by New South Associates in 2012, which received concurrence by the Florida State Historic Preservation Office in November 2013. Thirty support facilities were also surveyed and determined not eligible for listing on the NRHP.
