From the original article…
“Almost all of these buildings have now been demolished to make room for new commercial developments. The future of the Building 80 site, which sports the iconic “Fly DC Jets” neon sign remains uncertain.”

Most likely Boeing will tear the buildings at Long Beach down as quickly as possible, just like they did with the MD-11 facilities……..

McDonnell Douglas lives on in Boeings logo 🙂 I think that is a true mark of respect.

That’s a shame to see 48 years of aviation history come to an end, maybe Boeing in their infinite wisdom will turn building 80 into a McDonnell Douglas aerospace museum
