1965 Map of Wallops Island

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Wallops Flight Center (NASA) dominates this coastal stretch of Accomack County, reflecting the mid-century expansion of American aerospace operations along the Atlantic seaboard. The facility is densely marked with technical infrastructure including a Weather Station, Radio Facility, and multiple Launch Pads situated directly behind the Beach of Wallops Island. This concentration of technology stands in sharp contrast to the surrounding natural wetlands and tidal flats.
