Odom Field

Economic factors driven by urban encroachment and real estate development. As the city of Cabot expanded, the land occupied by the airport became significantly more valuable for residential housing. The owner sold the property, leading to its conversion into a suburban development.

The airport site has been completely redeveloped and no longer exists. The land is now occupied by the Greystone residential subdivision and the Greystone Country Club golf course. The former north-south runway's alignment is closely followed by the main thoroughfare of the subdivision, Greystone Boulevard. There are no remaining physical traces of the airport infrastructure such as hangars, taxiways, or the runway.

Odom Field, also known historically as Cabot Airport (with the FAA identifier 02A), was a privately-owned, public-use general aviation airport. Established between 1963 and 1965, it served the local community for over three decades. It primarily handled light aircraft, such as Cessna and Piper single-engine planes, for recreational flying, flight training, and personal business travel. The airport initially had an unpaved runway, which was later paved and extended to a length of 3,000 feet by the early 1990s. It was a vital asset for the local aviation community before the area's rapid suburban growth.

There are no plans or prospects for reopening Odom Field. The land has been permanently and densely repurposed for residential and recreational use, making any future conversion back to an airport physically and economically impossible.
