That's the barely visited Int'l Airport in Newfoundland, Canada.

It's were TONS of airplanes suddenly had to go when during 9-11 all airplanes from Europe were told to land ASAP.

The place is a living TIME CAPSULE --eery.

There was never any need to update it cuz no one ever complained. Cuz NO ONE goes there.

It's MORE retro than retro cuz it never became anything else.

Behold:

GANDER:

PARADISE for hisotrians and complainey old cranks.

I would love to take a trip through that airport.

The styling looks late ‘60s to me, when the mid-century modern look started to go from clean to garish. I’m going to guess it was built in 1968.

Aww, they don’t have any coin-operated televisions attached to chairs in the lounge like I saw at the Tampa airport in the 80s.
