1965 Map of Norfolk South

About this map

The Elizabeth River anchors this detailed survey of the South Hampton Roads area, where a dense network of neighborhoods like Cradock, Shea Terrace, and Waterview defines the residential core of Portsmouth. The landscape is heavily marked by significant federal and industrial footprints, most notably the sprawling U S Naval Shipyard and the U S Naval Ammunition Depot along the Southern rail lines. This edition, featuring 1980 purple-tinted photorevisions, captures the expansion of urban areas into formerly open ground near Highland-Biltmore and Cavalier Manor.
