Springfield Airport was an airfield operational in the mid-20th century in Springfield, Massachusetts.[1] With the completion of Interstate 91, Bradley International Airport in Windsor Locks, Connecticut serves as a shared-city commercial airport with Hartford. Westover Metropolitan Airport now serves most of the local air travel formerly fulfilled by Springfield Airport.

Granville Brothers Aircraft was based at the airfield. The land now features Springfield Plaza, a shopping center slated for residential re-development.
