1965 Map of Belvoir

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Fort Belvoir Military Reservation dominates the landscape at the confluence of the Potomac River and several major inlets, including Gunston Cove and Belmont Bay. The area showcases a mix of mid-century military infrastructure and deep colonial roots, notably at Gunston Hall and Woodlawn Plantation. Transportation is a primary theme of the terrain, with the Richmond Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad and the Shirley Memorial Highway cutting through the forest and suburban growth. The map captures local landmarks such as Pohick Ch and the Remey Tomb, alongside the developing residential enclaves of Hunter Estates and Pohick Estates. Along the Occoquan Creek, the settlement of Woodbridge stands across the water from the historic site of Colchester, illustrating the transition of Northern Virginia from a plantation-based river economy to a modern military and suburban hub.
