Until today, I did not know Hanger S was in jeopardy of being demolished. This website is how I learned of it, but the latest article on this site is from 2015.

What is the status of this historic structure?

To answer the Hangar S question, the following is from Jamie Draper, the Cape Canaveral Space Force Museum Director:

I know of no threat to Hangar S. Blue Origin took it over.
Jeff Bezos is a total space history geek. He has plans to replicate the Project Mercury astronaut area on the second floor of the south wing, where it originally was located.
Blue has already put a new roof on the hangar and a new coat of paint on the exterior walls. There would be no incentive for them to tear it down, unless there is something way off my radar.
