Adair Village
     Adair Village represents the remnants of the base housing for Adair Air Station which closed with the passing of the cold war. I remember visiting the Station on a field trip while in high school.  The radar display room was a dazzeling sight for me.  The whole room full of monitors showed aircraft flying all over the northwest.  I was not aware of it then, but there was not a computer in the room!  That would have been about 1962.  I also remember that the only window in the whole building was in the elevator.  If the operator stopped the elevator at a certain place between floors it lined up with another small window in the wall and one could see the outside world.  The view was limited, about 6"x6" as I recall.  Those were cold war times and one had to be ready for a Russian attack!
