The Highlands Airport

Redevelopment for non-aviation residential use. The land, which was originally a residential airpark, was repurposed for a conventional housing development. The central runway and taxiway areas were subdivided into lots and sold for new home construction, making aviation operations impossible.

The site is now a suburban housing development known as 'The Highlands at Cashion'. The runway no longer exists and has been completely replaced by residential streets (e.g., Highlands Boulevard), lots, and houses. While some of the original homes with large lots and hangar-style buildings remain on the periphery, the core aviation infrastructure has been entirely removed and built over.

The Highlands Airport, more formally known as Highlands Airpark (former FAA LID: 8OK1), was a private residential airpark. Its primary function was to serve a 'fly-in' community where residents, typically aviation enthusiasts, could park their personal aircraft at their homes in hangars and access a shared runway. It featured a single 2,600-foot turf runway (17/35). Operations were limited to general aviation aircraft owned by the community's residents for recreational and personal travel. It had no significant commercial or military role; its importance was local to the niche community it served.

None. The land has been permanently and irreversibly redeveloped for residential use. The construction of homes, roads, and utilities directly on the former runway makes any prospect of reopening the airport impossible.
