2010 Map of Norge

About this map

Norge and its surrounding communities are defined by a complex landscape of tidal waterways and modern residential expansion. The Chickahominy River winds along the western edge, creating a network of landforms like Wright Island and Shields Point, while the interior is marked by significant water management features including the Little Creek Reservoir and Jolly Pond. This era shows the transition from rural sites like Warren Mill and Claybank Landing to organized residential developments such as Kristiansand and Middle Plantation. Local history is anchored by long-standing institutions like the James City Chapel Cemetery and the Norge Post Office, while the southern portion of the map showcases the extensive grounds of the Fords Colony Golf Course. The map captures the suburbanization of James City County, where new neighborhoods like Seasons Trace sit adjacent to old drainage ways like Colby Swamp.
