Capetown Gap Filler Annex

On 23 March 1946, the U.S. Air Force acquired 0.28 fee acre and 4.10 easement acres from a private resident. The site was known as Capetown Gap Filler Annex (Z-33A). The Air Force Air Defense Command used the site for a radar transmitter. On 8 February 1967, the General Services Administration (GSA) quitclaimed the 4.38 acres to a private resident who later sold it to another private resident. The 4.38-acre site is located in Humboldt County, CA approximately 36 miles southwest of the City of Eureka. The site is currently owned by a private resident and is used as a ranch.
