1964 Map of Little Creek

About this map

U S Naval Reservation Little Creek Amphibious Base dominates the shoreline east of East Ocean View, anchoring a landscape defined by its strategic coastal position and mid-century suburban expansion. The survey documents the dense residential development between Chesapeake Bay and the interconnected waters of Lake Whitehurst and Little Creek Reservoir. These freshwater bodies, carved into the coastal plain, are surrounded by named neighborhoods like Larrymore Acres and Azalea Acres, reflecting the rapid growth of the Norfolk and Virginia Beach border area.
