    Not only Sand Point Naval Base, but before that it was Sand Point Naval Air Station, from 1920-1970. In fact, the outer area you currently see occupied by Magnusson Park used to be runways for Navy planes. Link here (scroll about halfway down and you will see an early photograph which shows the runways where there is now Magnusson Park):http://www.historylink.org/essays/output.cfm?file_id=2249
