1982 Map of Harvey

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Harvey Point Defense Testing Activity dominates the peninsula between the Perquimans River and Albemarle Sound, a landscape shaped by coastal defense and maritime access. This early 1980s survey illustrates the specialized military use of Harvey Neck, featuring a Landing Strip and seawalls along the shoreline. In addition to the testing facility, the map preserves older family and local landmarks, such as Harvey Cem and the small settlement at Newby Landing near Piney Point. The eastern portion of the sheet covers Durants Neck, separated by the mouth of Muddy Creek. The presence of multiple points and bays, including Blount Point and Halsey Bay, emphasizes the area's historical reliance on the sound and river for transportation and local commerce before the era of modern highway development.
