2016 Map of Newport News North

About this map

Newport News and Hampton are shown in significant suburban detail alongside the adjacent community of Poquoson. This 2016 survey highlights the complex intersection of residential growth and established institutions, from the sprawl of Langley Air Force Base to the academic grounds of Christopher Newport Univ and the Thomas Nelson Community Coll Hampton Campus. Historical preservation and local genealogy are well-represented by numerous burial grounds including New Bethel Baptist Church Cem, Carys Cem, and the Hebrew Cem. The landscape is defined by its relationship with water, anchored by the Big Bethel Reservoir and the James River Brg, which connects the peninsula to the south. Distinctive neighborhood names like Hilton Village, Aberdeen Gardens, and Sedgefield provide a look at the established residential patterns that shaped the region by the early 21st century.
