Harvard Aviation Field was an airfield operational in the early-20th century near Quincy, Massachusetts., initially developed by the Harvard Aeronautical Society. It was notably used to host the Harvard-Boston Aero Meets of 1910–1912 as well as intercollegiate events. Following the death of pioneering aviatrix Harriet Quimby at the third Air Meet, no further major events were held. The airfield evolved into a US Navy aviation base by 1917, the Squantum Naval Air Station, until its closure in 1953 and the property sold in 1956. The site is now part of Squantum Point Park, created in 2001 and managed by the state of Massachusetts.
