About this map

The Marine Corps Base (Quantico) dominates this coastal landscape along the Potomac River, reflecting the significant military footprint in Prince William County during the mid-1990s. The map illustrates a complex intersection of public lands, where the expansive Prince William Forest National Park and Quantico National Cemetery meet growing residential areas like Dumfries and Triangle.

Coastal geography is intricately detailed, showing the tidal reaches of Neabsco Creek and Powells Creek as they flow past Leesylvania State Park and the Featherstone National Wildlife Refuge. The transportation network is anchored by Telegraph Road and the Conrail line, which run parallel to the river's edge. Notable landmarks such as Possum Point and Cockpit Point mark the transition between the developed uplands and the river's shoreline, providing a look at the region's balance of conservation and suburban expansion.
