1964 Map of Newport News South

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Shipways and drydocks dominate the industrial waterfront of Newport News as seen in this mid-1960s survey, illustrating the intensive maritime development at the mouth of the James River. The urban landscape is dense with educational and religious institutions, ranging from St Marys Sch & Ch to the Virginia School for the Deaf and Blind. Across the wide expanse of the Hampton Roads harbor, the southern shore presents a different character, where the Naval Reservation Boundary and the U S Naval Supply Center near Portsmouth underscore the area's strategic military importance.
