Great shots!  I haven't been down there since the employee lot was back there.  I'll have to check it out one day.

707guy and Chuck:

Thanks a million for taking the time over the weekend to snap a few photos.  It was good to see current look at the old hangars (although it's very sad that they've fallen into such bad disrepair).

The former Continental Employee parking lot was built on the Sundorph site after it was all torn down (I'm guessing that was at some point in the early 1990's???).  I was last at Sundorph in late 1991 and it closed shortly after I was there.

No prob!  Just a short pickup truck drive away!  Looks like crap over there - but so does the area around the city garage on the southeast side of the field.  Be nice if they cleaned it up some.

Pretty sure it's just some city equipment in there now.

Wonder if there's anything left in the old offices.  From the looks of it, seems like everybody probably just left one day.  Wouldn't surprise me if there was still a 1980 sectional chart on the wall :laugh:
