1964 Map of North Virginia Beach

About this map

Fort Story Military Reservation and the extensive grounds of Seashore State Park dominate this coastal landscape, illustrating the division between military, recreational, and residential land use during the mid-1960s. The map highlights the transition from the protected woodlands and marshes of the state park to the growing suburban blocks of North Virginia Beach and Cavalier Park. Shoreline infrastructure is evident along Atlantic Avenue, while the interior of the park is navigated via the Main Trail. Beyond the sandy reaches, detailed bathymetry reveals the complex underwater contours of the Atlantic Ocean shelf. Residential development is clustered in the southern portion of the sheet, where neighborhood streets like 80th St and 76th St terminate near the coast. A Girl Scout Camp and prominent Radio Towers serve as distinct local landmarks in this maritime environment.
