1951 Map of Williamsburg

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

The colonial capital and its 20th-century military surroundings come into focus in this mid-century survey of Williamsburg, Virginia. While the historic core is defined by landmarks like the Governors Palace, the Capitol, and the sprawling campus of William and Mary College, the periphery reveals the area's massive expansion during the war years. To the north, the Camp Peary Naval Training Station occupies a vast tract along the York River, having displaced earlier rural life near Magruder and Skimino.
