Built in 1983 at a cost of $25 million dollars, the dome was originally built to house the Hughes H-4 Hercules aircraft or "Spruce Goose" as it was called by news media. Since then, the dome has been used as a giant soundstage for several Hollywood movies, served as a roller derby rink and most recently as a boarding terminal for the Carnival Cruise line.

Join Kurt A. Eichsteadt from the Grunion Gazette as he explores the forgotten history of the "Spruce Goose" Dome.
