OK, sorry not a US airport, but relevant...
OK, shorty history lesson here. After WWII, and West Berlin was starving d/t the Red Army blockades, the Allies started the Berlin Air Drop. They took off and landed from Tempelhof. I think it was because of the height of the surrounding buildings and the Red Army all over the outskirts.
