About this map

Virginia Beach presents a coastal landscape in transition during the mid-1950s, where traditional communities like Seatack and Atwoodtown sit alongside expanding military installations. The shoreline is defined by the Atlantic coast and a series of freshwater bodies including Lake Holly, Lake Rudee, and Lake Wesley. Local infrastructure and social life are anchored by landmarks such as Mt Olive Ch and Seatack Sch, while the Norfolk Southern line provides a rail connection to the burgeoning resort town.
