Kittyhawk Airport (FAA LID: 0T7) was a privately owned public-use airport located one nautical mile (2 km) northwest of the central business district of Allen, a city in Collin County, Texas, United States.^[1]

Kittyhawk Airport covered an area of 66 acres (27 ha) at an elevation of 700 feet (213 m) above mean sea level. It had one runway designated 18/36 with a turf surface measuring 2,300 by 195 feet (701 x 59 m).^[1]

Redevelopment

In 2012, it was announced that Kittyhawk Airport would be redeveloped into a single family home community with homes built by Pulte Homes and Grand Homes. The 66-acre tract of land was purchased by JBLG Capital LP of Dallas after 7 of the 10 property owners agreed to sell. In addition, 3.5-acres of land was purchased from Allen Independent School District. The name of the community would be known as the "Landings at Kittyhawk" or simply "The Landings".^[2]
