Linden Airport (IATA: LDJ, ICAO: KLDJ), also known as Linden Municipal Airport, is a small general aviation airport located along U.S. Route 1&9 in Linden, a city in Union County, New Jersey, southwest of New York City. This airport is publicly owned by the City of Linden. History
During World War II, a now closed and recently demolished General Motors factory across the street from the airport called Linden Assembly, produced military aircraft. The airport was built to allow testing and transportation of these aircraft. Since 2003, the majority of the airport has been replaced with a shopping center named Aviation Plaza. The airport retains its main building, hangars, and runway 9/27. The traffic helicopters for WABC-TV's Eyewitness News are hangared at Linden.
The airport served as a temporary road racing course in 1954 when Al Keller drove a Jaguar to victory in the then-NASCAR Grand National Division (now known as the Sprint Cup Series). It was the last win by a non-American made nameplate until Kyle Busch, driving a Toyota, won the 2007 Food City 500, spanning 53 years and nine months.
