Celebrating Architectural Heritage: The Lansing Ford Hangar
In the heart of Lansing, Illinois, stands a monument to aviation history and architectural innovation: the Lansing Ford Hangar. This remarkable structure, a testament to the vision of Edsel and Henry Ford and the genius of architect Albert Kahn, is highlighted in an insightful article on the Albert Kahn Legacy website. The hangar, originally part of a grand effort to popularize commercial air service in the early 20th century, represents a pivotal moment in the evolution of aviation infrastructure. Designed with the distinctive flair and functional brilliance characteristic of Kahn's work, the hangar not only served as a crucial node in the burgeoning network of air transport but also as a symbol of the Ford family's commitment to advancing aviation technology and infrastructure.
