An airplane hangar called the Browning Hangar in Austin, Texas has now been revitalized. For much of 2018 the old Browning Hangar was under construction. Work on revitalizing the Browning Hangar was completed in early August 2018. Today the Browning Hangar has now been revitalized while maintaining its historic design and is now serving as a mixed use structure.
Browning Hangar was once in service for the Robert Mueller Municipal Airport from 1945 to 1999. In 2000 the airplane was abandoned. Architectural Engineers Collaborative revitalized the airplane hangar in 2007. The sides and doors were removed in the same year. A protective roof cover was added. Restoration was started in 2007 and had ended in 2008. By 2017, the airplane hangar was completely open to both the public and private.
Browning Hangar still stands strong as 1 of the 3 remaining structures from the former Robert Mueller Municipal Airport including the control tower.
