The Woosley Memorial Airport, Northport, Michigan

Dedicated on July 14, 1935, the Woolsey Memorial Airport located just outside of Northport, Michigan is named after Captain Clinton Woolsey who died in a midair crash in 1927 over Argentina. Still an active airport that sees a flight or two each day, the terminal, which was originally a farm creamery, is a welcome roadside attraction for travelers heading along the Leelanau Peninsula in northwest Michigan.
