San Francisco Bay-area Hayward Executive Airport (KHWD) will receive additional small aircraft hangar space with the expansion of the Hayward Hangars complex. The company debuted its first location featuring eighteen 1,428-sq-ft box hangars in 2013.

It is following that up 12 years later with a second development phase. “Building A” will offer four 2,500-sq-ft hangars and four 2,000-sq-ft hangars. Equipped with single-piece hydraulic doors, three-phase power capability, and fire sprinkler protection, each will be able to shelter aircraft up to light jets and turboprop singles.

The $3.2 million project will include private restrooms and ample vehicle parking. Hayward Hangars has already been accepting leases on the facility, which is expected to be ready for occupancy at the end of March.

“There is considerable unmet demand for GA hangars in the San Francisco Bay Area and almost no new product has been delivered in recent years,” company president Jim Altschul told AIN, adding that the planned closure of Reid–Hillview Airport (KRHV) in nearby San Jose in 2031 will eliminate a considerable chunk of aviation real estate from the local market. “We regularly receive inquiries from airplane owners and manufacturers’ sales representatives, and [KHWD] is a great place at which to base an airplane.”
