Carmel Valley Airfield

Carmel Valley Airfield (also known as the Valley Vintage Airfield) was a privately owned airpark in Carmel Valley, California, from 1941 to 2002. The airport was later called the Carmel Valley Vintage Airfield. The California Historical Resources Commission voted to nominate the "Carmel Valley Vintage Airpark" (CVVA) as a State Historic Resource. The Commission found that development of the airport was important as it represented the "first airpark in the United States and in the world." The airfield closed due to noise and environmental concerns.
