Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 25, 2025
Closure Date

Circa early 2000s. The airport, which was likely an informal private strip, ceased to be used as a distinct entity following the purchase and major redevelopment of the surrounding Edenvale Aerodrome property, which began in 2002.

Reason for Closure

Redevelopment and consolidation. The identifier CA-1080 and the name 'New Lowell Airport' appear to refer to a private grass strip on the same property as the larger, historic Edenvale Aerodrome. When the Edenvale property was purchased in 2002 and revitalized into a modern general aviation airport, this informal strip became obsolete and its function was superseded by the restoration and improvement of the main, official runways.

Current Status

The site of the former grass strip is now fully integrated into the property of the active and operational Edenvale Aerodrome (ICAO: CNV8). The specific coordinates point to an open field within the airport's boundaries, adjacent to the main operational area. The overall site is a thriving general aviation hub featuring paved runways, modern hangars, a flight school, aircraft maintenance facilities, and the Canadian Air and Space Conservancy museum.

Historical Significance

The designation 'New Lowell Airport (CA-1080)' was likely an unofficial name for a private grass airstrip used by local pilots. Its operational period was probably during the decades when the main Edenvale Aerodrome was largely dormant (approximately 1960s to early 2000s). It would have handled light, single-engine general aviation aircraft. Its history and significance are entirely overshadowed by the main Edenvale Aerodrome, which was originally established as RCAF Detachment Edenvale, a relief landing field for the No. 1 Service Flying Training School at RCAF Station Borden during World War II as part of the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan (BCATP).

Reopening Prospects

None. There are no prospects for reopening 'New Lowell Airport' as a separate entity. The location is now served by the official and fully operational Edenvale Aerodrome (CNV8), making the former informal strip redundant. All aviation activity at this location now operates under the Edenvale Aerodrome name and procedures.
