About this map

Princess Anne and the surrounding coastal landscape of Virginia Beach are defined by an intricate network of waterways including the Western Branch Lynnhaven River and London Bridge Creek. This modern survey illustrates the dense residential expansion into historical areas like Wolfsnare Plantation and Linkhorn Estates, while preserving the location of local heritage sites such as the Old Great Neck Cem. The southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the Virginia Beach City Courthouse and the extensive grounds of Oceana Naval Air Station, a major military presence that anchors the local geography.

Institutional landmarks like Tidewater Community College - Virginia Beach Campus and the distinctive Mt Trashmore provide clear points of reference within the suburban grid. The map also traces the wetlands of Gum Swamp and the headwaters of the North Landing River, showing the transition from developed residential neighborhoods like Salem and Michaelwood to the preserved natural marshes that characterize this region of the Atlantic coast.
