About this map

The U S Naval Reservation Little Creek Amphibious Base dominates the shoreline of this coastal survey, where the waters of the Chesapeake Bay meet the sprawling urban expansion of Norfolk and Virginia Beach City. The landscape is a complex mix of tidal flats and residential developments like Larrymore Acres and Camellia Shores. Significant infrastructure of the mid-1960s is evident, including the Chesapeake Bay (Toll) Bridge-Tunnel stretching north and the Norfolk Municipal Airport adjacent to the Norfolk Botanical Gardens. The presence of numerous schools such as St Pius Sch and Rosemont Jr High Sch indicates the rapid post-war suburbanization of the area. Large inland water bodies like Lake Whitehurst and Little Creek Reservoir provide a stark contrast to the dense street grids of Ocean View and Bay View Beach.
