Dennison Airport was an airfield operational in the mid-20th century in Quincy, Massachusetts, United States.

History

In 1927, a small civilian airfield was established at Squantum near the intersection of East Squantum Street and Quincy Shore Drive. Amelia Earhart, when she lived in Medford, Massachusetts, was a share-holding director and helped finance the construction of the airport. She also flew on the first official flight out of the airport on September 3, 1927. Dennison Airport closed down in 1942.
