Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 26, 2025
Closure Date

Approximately 2001. The heliport was a private facility for Oman Construction Co. Inc., which was officially dissolved on October 1, 2001. The heliport ceased to be operational around this time, though it may have remained in some aviation databases for several years after its de facto closure.

Reason for Closure

Business closure. The primary reason for the heliport's closure was that its owner and sole operator, Oman Construction Co. Inc., ceased operations and was dissolved. As a private-use facility, its existence was entirely dependent on the company it served.

Current Status

The site is now a large-scale industrial property used for landscape and garden supply production and distribution. The property at 7339 Van Dyke Road is occupied by a commercial entity that handles bulk materials like mulch, soil, and stone. There is no longer any trace of the heliport; the land has been fully repurposed for the current occupant's industrial operations, including material storage, processing, and vehicle depots.

Historical Significance

The heliport, also identified by the FAA Location Identifier (LID) 1MI2, was a private-use (PVT) facility. Its significance was purely operational for the Oman Construction Company, a prominent road-building and construction firm in the area. The heliport, which consisted of a simple turf landing pad on the company's grounds, was used for business purposes such as executive transport to and from job sites, aerial surveying, and facilitating rapid movement of key personnel, which is a common practice for large construction and engineering firms.

Reopening Prospects

There are no plans or prospects for reopening Omans Heliport. The original owner no longer exists, and the property has been completely redeveloped by a new owner for an entirely different industrial purpose. Re-establishing a heliport would be impractical and is considered highly improbable.
