History

Standiford Field was made by the Army Corps of Engineers in 1941 on a parcel of district southward of Louisville that was constitute not to have inundated during the Ohio River deluge of 1937. It was named for Dr. Elisha David Standiford, a local man of affairs and politician, who was active agent in transportation system issues and owned division of the district. The field rested under Army command until 1947, when it was turned over to the Louisville Air Board for commercial functioning.

Before Standiford Field got the independent conduit for rider air traffic in Louisville, Bowman Field was Louisville's briny airport. For many yr rider traffic went through the currently comparatively little brick Lee Terminal at Standiford Field. Major building in the 1980s ensued in the newer, more modern and much bigger facilities that are used currently. Most of the Lee Terminal was afterwards rase.

Parallel landing track, enabling a much higher volume of air traffic and alleviating spread out United Parcel Service functioning, were also division of an airport enlargement program set about in the 1980s.
