A giant-sized airplane hangar north of Los Angeles International Airport was built in 1943 by Hughes Aircraft for one of the largest aircraft in the world, Hughes H-4 Hercules, with a wingspan of 98 meters (by the way, this record still holds today).

The legendary building in the new era was used in the filming of several films, including “Independence Day” and “Transformers”. But soon peaceful workplaces, computers and thousands of Google employees can be accommodated here.
