About this map

Charlotte Amalie serves as the focal point of this mid-century survey, revealing the administrative and maritime heart of the Virgin Islands. The town's layout is defined by its dramatic topography, with landmarks such as Government House, Bluebeard Hill, and Bunker Hill overlooking the bustling St Thomas Harbor. To the west, the infrastructure of the Harry S Truman Airport and the US Naval Reservation on Water Island underscore the strategic and commercial importance of the island during this period. Local spiritual and educational life is represented by the Nisky Mission and the High Sch.
