The James River waterfront and the expanding urban infrastructure of the Virginia Peninsula define this mid-1960s survey, revised in the early 1980s. Post-war suburban growth is evident in planned communities like Hilton Village and Aberdeen Gardens, while institutional development is marked by the presence of Christopher Newport College and Thomas Nelson Community College. The landscape is a complex mix of military reservations, including Langley Air Force Base, and essential water management features like the Big Bethel Reservoir on Brick Kiln Creek.
