The Coast Guard builds new engineers' shops by Omaha Dock to replace frame structures
In 1986 the Coast Guard put up Building 96 between Kimmel Road and Omaha Dock. The one-story building, brick-faced over a steel frame and topped by a gabled standing-seam metal roof, replaced several frame structures near the dock that had held shop facilities for the Coast Guard's engineers.
