The Nielson Airport was built by Laurie Reuben Nielson, a businessman born in New Zealand. It was built in 1937 and served as the control tower and passenger depot of the city's airport. Until 1948. The Nielson Airport was built on a 42-hectare piece of land owned by Ayala y Cia. During World War II, commercial flights were relocated so that Nielson could serve the U.S. Army Air Corps.
Nielson Field was the location of the Far East Air Force headquarters of the United States Army in the Philippines. Most of the aircraft of the FEAF were based at either Clark Field or Nichols Field. The cultural site was an Honourable Mention in the 2001 UNESCO Asia Pacific Heritage Awards.
