1965 Map of Norfolk South

About this map

Industrial and naval infrastructure dominates this mid-1960s view of the Hampton Roads region, where the Elizabeth River and its branches divide the growing urban centers. The US Naval Shipyard and US Naval Hospital stand as massive anchors of federal activity, while the southern reaches near Gilmerton and Deep Creek show a landscape of transition with industrial waste ponds, sewage disposal facilities, and the South Norfolk Airport. Significant expansion is noted in purple, particularly around residential neighborhoods like Cavalier Manor and Victory Park.
