History

In July 1931, the State of Rhode Island opened Hillsgrove State Airport on 158 acres (0.64 km) 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. It currently houses the offices of the Airport Operations Department.
