1948 Map of Norfolk North

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

Hampton Roads and the northern reaches of Norfolk are captured here just after the war, showing a landscape deeply integrated with military and maritime operations. The extensive US Naval Reservation and US Army Base dominate the western waterfront, where numerous docks and tidal markers indicate a high level of activity at Sewall Pt and Tanner Pt. This period reflects the rapid residential expansion of the area, seen in the planned layouts of neighborhoods like Oakdale Farms, Monticello Village, and Titustown.
