About this map

Princess Anne and the surrounding coastal landscape show the rapid transition from agrarian roots to modern suburban and military expansion. The map is anchored by the Oceana Naval Air Station and the Virginia Beach City Hall, illustrating the area's development as a civic and strategic hub. Cultural history is visible in landmarks like Wolfsnare Plantation and Rose Hall, while the spiritual and educational needs of the growing community are met by numerous institutions such as Piney Grove Ch and the Floyd E Kellam High Sch. The intricate waterways of the Eastern Branch Lynnhaven River and West Neck Creek define the geography, intertwined with the Southern Railroad Grade and Norfolk Southern Railroad Grade that once connected these coastal reaches.
