1955 Map of Cape Henry

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Cape Henry serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the entrance to the Chesapeake Bay. The area is characterized by a complex network of tidal waterways and peninsulas, including Great Neck and Little Neck, which separate the expansive Lynnhaven Bay from the ocean shore. Large tracts of protected land define the northeastern corner, notably the US Military Reservation at Fort Story and the extensive woodlands of Seashore State Park.
