History

In July 1931, the State of Rhode Island opened Hillsgrove State Airport on 158 acres (0.64 km2) in Warwick, the first state-owned and operated airfield in the United States.

The terminal building opened in January 1933. For many years, it was occupied by an office of the U.S. Weather Service.[2] It currently houses the offices of the Airport Operations Department.
