Hi Pieren is right. The original word has spread around. In Dutch a hangar is
initially for planes, but we do use the same words as magazijn for a storage
room or even a shop. But a large magazine is also called pakhuis - warehouse
and an entrepot, the last one is also used for a customs facility, to prevent
the trouble of making clearance papers over and over again.I agree that the
original use or design should get back into the tag of a building. Youre able
to reuse a church for condos, but the outside still will be a recognisable
church.Like Martin said english ; aircrafts, I expect that all the old, since
1500, trading countries are roughly using the same names or expressions for a
storage facility. And as its has been spread all over the world by the leading
trading countries.GreetzPs with all this confusion, it seems IMHO that the Wiki
has to be corrected a bit.
