Aerial View of Miller Field

Miller Field was a United States Army facility in the neighborhood of New Dorp, Staten Island, New York. It was founded in November 1919 and completed in 1921.

Miller Field was once home to one of the most prominent American families of the 19th Century. In 1836, Cornelius Vanderbilt began purchasing farmland in New Dorp and owned most of what became Miller Field by 1843. Vanderbilt's heirs sold the property to the federal government in 1919.

The Air Coast Defense Station at Miller Field was completed in 1921. It had a concrete seaplane ramp, two grass runways, two landplane hangars, two seaplane hangars, and troop and family housing. This grass airfield became part of the National Park Service in 1972 when Gateway National Recreation Area was established.
