By the traffic circle is (L) Camden's CENTRAL AIRPORT, a stop for four
transcontinental lines and the terminal for Philadelphia traffic. Planes of
Eastern Airlines, United Airlines, American Airlines, and Transcontinental and Western Air are scheduled (1939) for a total of 47 landings daily.
The 220-acre field was established in 1929. The ADMINISTRATION BUILDING is a one-story, L-shaped structure of stucco, with a low roof. Two
hangars are mostly of glass, with concrete columns. Philadelphia, no more
pleased with the necessity of using a New Jersey airport than is New York
by its dependence upon Newark Airport, plans to establish its own terminal.
South of the airport US 130 by-passes the business centers of suburban
communities and twists through a succession of traffic circles.
