| Appearance |
| This single-story, rectangular building is located along the lakeside loop road at the northeast part of the site. Due to the explosive nature of the materials historically stored there, the building is rather isolated and has only one opening. The doorway is in the east wall, facing Lake Washington and the road; thus, it is away from the rest of the former naval air station site. The poured concrete foundation supports a board-formed, poured concrete structure capped by a side gable roof. The roofing material is corrugated asbestos panels. A concrete loading dock is intact, as are the metal doors. The south side has small, half-round vent covers made of concrete. |
