About this map

Hampton Roads serves as the central focal point of this coastal landscape, where the James River, Nansemond River, and the branches of the Elizabeth River converge. This era is defined by heavy military and industrial investment, as seen in the expansive Camp Stuart and the Pig Point Ordnance Depot. The dense urban centers of Newport News, Norfolk, and Portsmouth are interconnected by a sophisticated rail network, including the Atlantic Coast Line, Southern, and Seaboard Air Line.
