1919 Map of Cape Henry

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

Virginia Beach stands at the eastern edge of this coastal landscape, situated between the open Atlantic Ocean and the intricate tidal waterways of Linkhorn Bay and Broad Bay. The area is defined by its maritime geography, from the sweeping dunes of The Desert at Cape Henry to the sheltered waters of Lynnhaven Roads. Inland, the map reveals a transition from these sandy shores to a network of creeks and branches, including Little Creek and Wolfsnare Creek, where early road and rail lines connect established settlements.
