Chesapeake was formed in 1963 by a political consolida-tion of the City of South Norfolk with the former NorfolkCounty, which dated to 1691. The new city joined the ranksof the current Seven Cities of Hampton Roads which arelinked by the circumferential Hampton Roads Beltway.And just like much of Hampton Roads, the area boasts animpressive history.

Chesapeake’s history goes far back into Virginia’s colo-nial roots. On the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, whichpasses through Chesapeake, lays the site of the Battle ofGreat Bridge. On Dec. 9, 1775, the red coats and colonistsclashed in the Battle of Great Bridge when the Americanrebels defeated the British and drove them from nearbyNorfolk. Today, the municipal center complex rests a fewhundred yards from that historic spot.

Until the late 1980s and early 1990s, much of Chesapeakewas either suburban or rural, serving as a bedroom com-munity for the cities of Norfolk and Virginia Beach withresidents commuting to these locations. Beginning in thelate 1980s and accelerating in the 1990s, however, Chesa-peake saw significant growth, attracting numerous indus-tries and businesses of its own. The business communityincludes more than 80 foreign-based companies from 19different countries. This economic development and theattractive residential properties have created a populationboom. Chesapeake has grown from 78,000 at its inceptionto an estimated 222,209 in 2010, according to the U.S.Census Bureau.

Today, Chesapeake is a vibrant community that enjoys thebest of two worlds – one of urban variety, culture and excite-ment and another of rural landscapes and relaxed countryliving. In fact, nearly 300 farms occupy close to one-fifth ofthe city’s land, growing corn, soybean and wheat.

Chesapeake is host to many culturally-diverse events andis home to many beautiful parks, lakes and rivers. The cityhas more miles of deepwater canals than any otherin the country. The Dismal Swamp Canalruns through Chesapeake as well.It is the oldest continuouslyused man-made canal inthe United States todayand has been in servicefor over 230 years.

Chesapeake is hometo Naval AuxiliaryLanding Field Fen-tress, a Navy facilityunder Naval Air Sta-tion Oceana in Vir-ginia Beach.

The three largest citiesby population in Virginia

reside in Hampton Roads:Virginia Beach, Norfolk,

and Chesapeake.


Hampton is one of America’s oldest cit-ies and with a proud and rich historyand is one of the fastest growing cities inthe region. Hampton is the most popu-lous settlement with the name and is thesixth most populous city in Virginia.

Hampton’s history is traced to April30, 1607 when Captain John Smith andcompany landed at Kecoughtan. Theydeclared the land brought them “greatcomfort,” before continuing upriverto establish Jamestown. On October 1,1609, Fort Algernourne, one of Ameri-ca’s first forts, was constructed at PointComfort – the site several fortificationswould occupy.

Hampton is nestled along the beautifulChesapeake Bay and graced with milesof shoreline and breathtaking waterviews. Hampton has a distinct small-townfeel with little traffic and an abundanceof amenities. With an average commutetime of 20 minutes, Hampton is literallyin the heart of Hampton Roads.

Like most cities in Hampton Roads,Hampton also has a strong military pres-ence. Fort Monroe is headquarters forthe U.S. Army Training and DoctrineCommand and Langley Air Force Basehosts the 1st Fighter Wing and Air Com-bat Command.

As the home of NASA Langley ResearchCenter, Hampton lays claim to the birthof the American space program – thefirst training ground for American astro-nauts like John Glenn and Alan Shep-herd and the Mercury Seven.

Langley Speedway offers NASCAR fansan outlet for their “need for speed.” Call865-RACE (7223) for more informationabout the track and for upcoming races.

In addition to the cost of living beingwell below the national average, Hamp-ton has one of the lowest crime rates inthe region and was rated as one of the“Best Places to Live” by Money Maga-zine. Hampton was also recently namedone of the “100 Best Communities forYoung People” in the first-ever nationalcompetition held by America’s Promise.

Hampton offers exciting nightlife andfamily entertainment with endlesschoices to spend leisure time. With itsprime waterfront location, boating isone of the most popular activities.

The City of Newport News was formallyorganized and became independent ofWarwick County in 1896 by an act of theVirginia General Assembly. It was one ofonly a few cities in Virginia to be newlyestablished without earlier incorpora-tion as a town. Newport News is cur-rently ranked as Virginia’s fifth largestincorporated city by population and islocated at the southwestern end of theVirginia Peninsula on the north shore ofthe James River, thus playing a huge rolein the maritime industry.

The City of Newport News was essentiallyfounded by Collis P. Huntington. Hun-tington, a Northern railroad tycoon fromConnecticut, brought two magnet indus-tries to Newport News: the Chesapeakeand Ohio Railroad and Newport NewsShipbuilding and Dry Dock Company.

Now known as Northrop GrummanNewport News, the shipyard, charteredin 1886, has built aircraft carriers forthe Navy since the 1930s, including thefirst nuclear-powered aircraft carrierUSS Enterprise and is today the solebuilder of the Navy’s carriers. The firstvessel built by the yard was the tugboatDorothy. Newport News is also home to

the Army’s Fort Eustis, home of the U.S.Army Transportation Corps and to theU.S. Army Transportation Museum, fea-turing traditional and experimental de-vices like the Avro-Car which resemblesa flying saucer.

The city provides residents and visitorswith plenty to do. History buffs can strollthrough Civil War battlefields and 1862Peninsula Campaign sites or perusethe exhibits at The Mariner’s Museum,which records 3,000 years of maritimehistory. Children of all ages love the Vir-ginia Living Museum where exhibits de-pict Virginia’s natural heritage from themountains to the sea and introduces visi-tors to more than 250 living species na-tive to Virginia through discovery centersand interactive hands-on exhibits.

Newport News is also home to 32 cityparks, including one of the largest mu-nicipal parks in the country. NewportNews Park is a magnificent 8,000 acre-oasis home to an incredible variety ofnative wildlife — deer, foxes, otter, rac-coon and beaver, to name a few — allfound in a natural setting of lush wood-lands, flowering meadows and shimmer-ing lakes.

Norfolk is named for the large naturalharbor of the same name located at themouth of Chesapeake Bay. The city is bor-dered to the west by the Elizabeth Riverand to the north by the Chesapeake Bay.One of the oldest of the Hampton Roadscities, Norfolk is considered to be the his-toric, urban, financial and cultural centerof the region.

Established in 1624, the city was the colo-ny’s most prosperous town by 1775. It wasan important port for exporting goods tothe British Isles and beyond. But on NewYear’s Day 1776, during the three-daysiege of the Revolutionary War, most ofNorfolk’s early structures were destroyed.In the spring of 1862, the Battle of Hamp-ton Roads took place off the northwestshore of the city’s Sewell’s Point Penin-sula, marking the first fight between twoironclads, USS Monitor and CSS Virginia.

1907 brought both the Virginian Railwayand the Jamestown Exposition to Sewell’sPoint. The large naval Review at the expo-sition, demonstrated the Peninsula’s favor-able location and laid the groundwork forthe world’s largest Naval base. By 1917, asthe United States built up to enter WorldWar I, Naval Air Station Hampton Roads

had been constructed. Now home to Na-val Station Norfolk, the largest Navy basein the world, it is impossible to miss theimprint of the Navy at work and at play.

Norfolk has a long history as a strategic mil-itary and transportation point. The NorthAtlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) hasits defense headquarters here. It also hasthe corporate headquarters of NorfolkSouthern Railway, one of North America’sprincipal Class I railroads and Maersk, theworld’s largest shipping company.

Norfolk’s easily-walked downtown water-front boasts attractions such as the battle-ship USS Wisconsin and Nauticus, TheNational Maritime Center, an interactivescience and technology. Tugboats andvisiting cruise ships share the waters withsailboats and merchant ships. Other trea-sures include The Chrysler Museum, Nor-folk Botanical Gardens and the VirginiaZoological Park.

Norfolk serves as home to the two highestlevel professional franchises in the state ofVirginia, the Norfolk Tides baseball teamand the Norfolk Admirals hockey team.See page 40 for more information on thoseand other local sports teams!

Of all the Hampton Roads communi-ties, Suffolk offers the greatest oppor-tunity for a little extra acreage for realcountry living. Geographically, Suffolk isthe largest independent city in land areain the entire Commonwealth. Though itis the largest of the cities in HamptonRoads, it has the smallest population.

Suffolk was founded by English colo-nists in 1742 as a port town on the Nan-semond River as part of the VirginiaColony. Before European contact, in-digenous tribes lived in the region forthousands of years. At the time of Eng-lish settlement, the Nansemond Indianslived along the river. In the early colo-nial years, the English cultivated tobac-co as a commodity crop, but later turnedto mixed farming.

Burned by the British in 1779 and dam-aged by other fires throughout the nextcentury, Suffolk survived to become acity in 1910. In 1974, it became the pres-ent City of Suffolk, consolidating withthe towns of Holland and Whaleyvilleand the County of Nansemond. Theend result was a new municipality en-compassing a total of 430 square miles,making it the largest city in land areain Virginia and the 11th largest in thecountry.

Peanuts grown in the surrounding areasbecame a major industry for Suffolk andthe area is known as the heart of peanutproduction. Suffolk is also the birthplaceof Mr. Peanut, the mascot of Planters’ Pea-nuts. In 1912, an Italian immigrant namedAmedeo Obici moved from Pennsylvaniato Suffolk and opened Planters Nut andChocolate Company. Each year in the fall,the City of Suffolk hosts Suffolk FestivalsIncorporated’s annual Peanut Fest, host-ing close to 200,000 visitors over four days.

The charisma of Suffolk is clear and itspopulation is expected to more thandouble in the next 20 years. But the cityis careful about development and preserv-ing the landscape while creating commu-nities for new residents. The revitalizeddowntown features historical attractionsas well as shopping and dining. Newer de-velopments offer residents the option ofsuburban-style living.

Country living provides outdoors-typeswith plenty to do as well. From freefallskydiving with U.S. Parachute Associa-tion to fishing along the city’s 8,000 acresof waterways – the city is certain to keepyou adrenaline flowing. The Great DismalSwamp National Wildlife Refuge offers anice getaway to bicycle, hike, bird watch orjust to enjoy a family picnic.

The most populous city in Virginia, itbegan as a small resort area in PrincessAnne County after the 1888 arrival ofrail service and electricity and the open-ing of the original Princess Anne Hotelat the oceanfront near the tiny commu-nity of Seatack.

The growing resort of Virginia Beach be-came an incorporated town in 1906 andan incorporated city in 1952. Althoughthe resort was initially dependent uponrailroad and electric trolley service, thecompletion of Virginia Beach Boulevardin 1922, which extended from Norfolkto the oceanfront, opened the way forautomobiles, buses, trucks and passen-ger rail service, the latter of which waseventually discontinued.

Virginia Beach is a resort city with milesof beaches and hundreds of hotels,motels and restaurants along its ocean-front. Every year the city hosts the EastCoast Surfing Championship as well asthe North American Sand Soccer Cham-pionship. The city features 79 miles ofscenic waterway, 60 miles of bike paths,38 miles of shoreline and 28 miles ofpublic beach. In fact, the city is listed inthe Guinness Book of Records as havingthe longest pleasure beach in the world,which is located near the longest bridge-tunnel complex in the world – the Ches-apeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel.

The beaches contribute substantially tothe tourism that produces a large shareof Virginia Beach’s economy and wel-comes approximately 2.75 million visi-tors annually.

Although Virginia Beach is best knownfor its tourism, the military and agribusi-ness sectors contribute considerably tothe city’s economy. Virginia Beach ishome to three military installations –Naval Air Station Oceana, NAS OceanaDam Neck Annex and Joint Expedition-ary Base Little Creek-Fort Story. The“sound of freedom” fills the sky everyday as Navy jets swoop through the airon training missions.

The Contemporary Art Museum of Vir-ginia features internationally renownedartists, as well as regional and local favor-ites. Animal lovers should not miss the Vir-ginia Aquarium. With interactive exhibitsspotlighting aquatic animals and marinescience, this attraction is ranked as one ofthe top 10 marine science facilities in thecountry. For those who want to discoversea life on their own, Virginia Beach fea-tures 18 marinas with public access.

The American Music Festival, the Vir-ginia Beach Neptune Festival Board-walk Weekend, and the NAS Oceana AirShow are just a few of the city’s festivalsand events not to be missed.
