"Wings" are for libraries and hospitals in English. Also, you can't know for sure that this is "east," since, as the other respondent mentioned, the Japanese can just use 西, 北, and whatnot for the compass points.
Generally, in Japanese manufacturing plants, 棟 indicates a building.
Also, in English "5F" doesn't mean anything. The abbreviation for "fifth floor" is typically "5th fl."
