The Cradle of Aviation Museum is located on Charles Lindbergh Blvd. in East Garden City on historic Mitchel Field in Nassau County, NY. Formerly Mitchel Field Airforce Base, now it's the home of Museum Row, Nassau Community College, Nassau Coliseum, Mitchel Athletic Complex and Hofstra University. We are minutes away from Eisenhower Park and the Roosevelt Field Mall which boasts some of the best indoor shopping in the country. Roosevelt Field was the takeoff point for many historic flights in the early history of aviation, including Charles Lindbergh's 1927 solo transatlantic flight and at its peak in the 1930s, it was America's busiest civilian airfield.
