1955 Map of Norfolk North

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

U S Naval Reservation dominates the northern reaches of this mid-century survey, a period when the Hampton Roads waterfront supported massive military and maritime infrastructure. The intricate coastline is defined by the Willoughby Spit and Sewells Point, where the Elizabeth River Channel and Newport News Channel meet. Inland, the growth of residential neighborhoods like Larchmont, Oakdale Farms, and Wards Corner reflects the post-war expansion of the area.
