About this map

Virginia Beach is depicted during a transformative era of coastal development and military expansion. The map reveals a dense corridor of coastal settlement served by the Norfolk Southern railroad, with established stops at Casino Station and Lake Station. Landmarks like The Casino and the Princess Anne Club Golf Links emphasize the area's growth as a destination, while the presence of Camp Pendleton and Dam Neck underscores the heavy military footprint along the coast in the late 1940s.
