Saginaw Airport

Urban encroachment and economic reasons. The land became significantly more valuable for commercial and residential real estate development due to the rapid suburban growth of north Fort Worth. The airport was sold to developers to build a large mixed-use project.

The former airport site has been completely redeveloped. It is now the location of the 'Presidio Towne Crossing' shopping center, which includes major retailers like Costco, Target, and Best Buy, along with numerous other stores and restaurants. The surrounding area is filled with apartment complexes and residential neighborhoods. There are no visible remnants of the runway, hangars, or any other airport infrastructure.

Saginaw Airport (former FAA Identifier: F04) was a privately-owned, public-use general aviation airport established sometime between 1963 and 1968. It served as a vital hub for the local general aviation community, providing a base for private pilots, flight training, aircraft maintenance, and fuel services. Its single paved runway, 17/35, was initially around 2,200 feet and was later extended to 3,600 feet to accommodate a wider range of small aircraft. The airport acted as a reliever airport for the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, alleviating traffic from larger airports like Meacham International and DFW International. It was a classic example of a community airfield that supported recreational flying and business travel before being overtaken by urban sprawl. Note: The ICAO code 'US-11232' is a non-standard identifier from a specific database; its official FAA identifier was F04. It did not have an IATA code.

None. The prospect of reopening is zero. The land has been fully and permanently redeveloped into a high-value, dense commercial and residential area, making any plan to re-establish an airport on the site logistically and economically impossible.
