1943 Map of Hopewell

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

The confluence of the James River and Appomattox River anchors this 1940 survey, centering on the industrial and strategic importance of Hopewell and the ancient river port of City Point. The map details a complex landscape of tidal waterways and neck lands, including the serpentine path of the Turkey Island Cutoff and the sprawling Curles Neck. The inland areas show a mix of established community life and military-institutional footprints, from the extensive grounds of Camp Lee and the Federal Reformatory to rural landmarks like Walthall Mill.
