1968 Map of Cape Charles

About this map

The town of Cape Charles sits as a vital rail and maritime terminus along the Eastern Shore, as seen in this 1968 field survey. The street grid is clearly defined by Washington Ave and Mason Ave, terminating at the Penn Central rail yards and the industrial activity of Cape Charles Harbor. These facilities underscore the town’s role as a transportation hub, where land-based rail lines met the deep waters of the Chesapeake Bay.
