• Air terminal building and Mats headquarters on NAS Agana. These buildings were located on Central Avenue at the south end of the runway and were destroyed by Typhoon Karen in 1962. These buildings were next to the Navy Exchange.
  
  A new modern air terminal was built in 1965 or 1966 on Central Avenue at the north end of the runway, about a stones throw from the Acey Duecy Club. The Navy Exchange was moved across the runway to an empty concrete barracks building.
