1965 Map of Virginia Beach

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Atlantic coastline of Virginia Beach is defined by a deep military presence and rapidly developing residential clusters in this mid-1960s survey, updated with late-1970s revisions. Extensive federal holdings like the State Military Reservation and the U S Naval Amphibious Base occupy significant portions of the shoreline, separating established communities like Seatack and Bird Neck Point from the southern reaches of Sand Bridge. The map captures a transitional era for the coastal landscape, where the traditional Boardwalk and urban core sit north of the wilder, marshy expanses of Dam Neck and James Swamp.
