About this map

Hampton and its surrounding coastal landscape are captured in high detail through this 1973 orthophotograph, produced under the direction of state geologist James L. Calver. The imagery reveals the intricate relationship between the dense urban grid and the fingers of the Chesapeake coastline, highlighting the developed waterfront and extensive naval or aeronautical infrastructure. This specific survey provides a direct visual record of mid-century suburban expansion and industrial land use before later decades of coastal redevelopment. By combining aerial photography with traditional topographic precision, the map offers a unique perspective on the area's transition into a modern maritime and military hub.
