Description
Aerial
view
,
looking
west
, of the
Kalamazoo
Flying
Service
Incorporated
located
at
5607
Portage
Road
on the
grounds
of the
Kalamazoo
Municipal
Airport
. The
hanger
and
office
buildings
are
situated
in the
bottom
center
of the
image
on the
east
side
of
Portage
Road
,
which
runs
from the
left
edge
to the
right
edge
of the
image
. In the
top
right
corner
of the
image
stands
the
Portage
Auto
(Drive-in)
Theatre
located
at
5528
Portage
Road
. As of
2006
this
seemingly
rural
scene
has
changed
dramatically
. The
west
side
of the
road
has been
completely
redeveloped
including
the
demolition
and
redevelopment
of the
Auto
Theatre
site
. The
Flying
Service
buildings
remain
standing
however
they have been
heavily
remodeled
and
several
additional
buildings
constructed
within
the
complex
. The
Kalamazoo
Municipal
Airport
is
now
the
Kalamazoo
Battle
Creek
International
Airport
.
NOTE
-
it
should be
noted
that the this
airport
falls
within
the
boarders
of the
City
of
Portage
however
it
was
annexed
by the
City
of
Kalamazoo
and
so
is
considered
to be
part
of the
City
of
Kalamazoo
.
It
should also be
noted
that this
area
was
originally
referred
to as "
Indian
Fields
"
due
to
it
being
a
location
of a
Potawatomi
Village
.
Later
the
name
changed
to
Lindbergh
Field
named
for the
famous
aviator
Charles
Lindbergh
.
