Seaplanes were the reason LaGuardia was built where it is. It was never meant to be a full-size airport, especially since the powerbrokers in New York in the 1920s viewed aviation as a competitor to their railroads.
It already is, or was.
Terminal A used to be the LaGuardia Marine Air Terminal.
It's actually a beautiful building with the inside walls covered in art deco murals. I flew in and out of it once.
