Griswold Airport (FAA LID: N04) was a public airport located three miles (5 km) east of the central business district of Madison, a town in New Haven County, Connecticut, United States. It was privately owned by Griswold Airport, Inc.
The airport has been closed since the beginning of 2007. According to the Hartford Courant, the owner sold the property to make way for a proposed 127-unit development for people 55 and older. History
Griswold Airport opened in 1931, located between Route 1 and the Hammonasset River, and adjacent to Hammonasset State Park. In 1985, the Griswold family offered to sell the airport to the town of Madison. In November 2000, Leyland Development Corporation obtained an option to purchase the land, and submitted plans for a 260-unit housing development, which was approved by the towns' Planning and Zoning Commission (PZC). A lawsuit against the town to stop the development failed, but local opposition was so strong that Leyland withdrew its original proposal. In the fall of 2003, the developer (renamed LeylandAlliance), submitted a revised proposal to build 131 units. In May 2004, the new proposal was approved by the PZC. LeylandAlliance completed the purchase in February 2007.
Facilities and aircraft
Griswold Airport covered an area of 42 acres which contained one asphalt paved runway (6/24) measuring 1,863 x 50 ft (568 x 15 m). For the 12-month period ending December 31, 2005, the airport had 3,000 aircraft operations, 100% of which were general aviation.
