Cape Canaveral would be my guess....

Nice try, but no. You're a few hundred miles off.

Too much built up on the coast for Cape Canaveral in my opinion. I am thinking Kitty Hawk.

From the 1930's.
Our organization has to have something for the landscape architects to do, I guess.

When I was there last in 2009 I learned that the airport/airstrip wasn't added until the mid-sixties.

Well, technically, I think we're looking at the original airstrip.
I believe you're correct about the paved GA strip on the west side of the monument. I don't think I have any pictures looking in that direction.
