1964 Map of Little Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

U S Naval Reservation Little Creek Amphibious Base dominates the shoreline where the Chesapeake Bay meets the urban expansion of Norfolk and Virginia Beach City. This mid-century survey documents the dense residential development between the coastal reach of Ocean View and the burgeoning Norfolk International Airport. The landscape is a complex network of man-made and natural water bodies, including Little Creek Reservoir and Whitehurst Reservoir, which separate dozens of mid-century neighborhoods such as Camellia Shores and Roosevelt Gardens. The presence of the Norfolk and Portsmouth Belt Line RR and the massive Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel highlights the region's critical role as a transportation and military hub. Inland, the map captures established local landmarks like the Norfolk Botanical Gardens and Rosemont Cem, alongside numerous schools such as Norview High Sch that served the post-war suburban boom.
