Chandler Field/Fresno Municipal Airport Electric Control Building (1937)
Art Deco
This rectangular plan building appears to be poured in
place concrete and is Art Deco in design. Exterior ornamentation includes
pilasters at each elevation corner that step back prior to the coping at the
edge of the flat roof. Both the south and north elevations have three
rectangular inserts that are similar in shape and scale to the windows on the
bathroom building directly across the road. In this case
the panels are solid, with no piercing. There is a solid panel door on the east
elevation.
