1919 Map of Cape Henry

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

Cape Henry and the surrounding coastal plains of Princess Anne Co are captured here during a period of expanding infrastructure and military presence just after World War I. The map illustrates a complex network of waterways, including Broad Bay, Lynnhaven Bay, and the intricate inlets of West Neck Creek. Settlement patterns are defined by family-named crossroads and small communities like London Bridge, Oceana, and Salem, while larger landmarks such as the Norfolk City Waterworks and Norfolk City Home signal the growing needs of the nearby urban center.
