Elizabeth River branches
The Southern Branch and its tributaries wind through the northern part of the city, lined with docks, bridges and neighbourhoods. Together they form the most intricate water pattern on the map.

The map
Chesapeake Map Poster & Print
Chesapeake covers a large stretch of southeastern Virginia, from the edge of Norfolk down to the North Carolina line. From above it looks less like one city than a patchwork. Dense neighbourhoods line the branches of the Elizabeth River in the north, commercial districts gather around Greenbrier, and long stretches of farmland, forest and wetland fill the south.
The city was created in 1963 when the former Norfolk County merged with the city of South Norfolk. Two historic canals cross its territory, and both now carry the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. The Dismal Swamp Canal is one of the oldest operating artificial waterways in the United States, and the other is the Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal. The city's southwestern corner reaches into the Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge.
A Chesapeake map poster captures that mix of water and space. The river branches and canals draw long, confident lines, suburban streets form curving clusters between them, and the southern farmland leaves broad open areas. In black and white the result is surprisingly graphic. It reads well from across a room, and a closer look picks out the waterways in detail.

Historic canals
The Dismal Swamp Canal and the Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal cut straight across the low ground. Both carry the Intracoastal Waterway south towards the sounds of North Carolina.
Swamp and farmland
South of the suburbs the street network thins into long rural roads, fields and the forested edge of the Great Dismal Swamp, leaving calm open space in the lower part of the frame.

Why Chesapeake
A map that means something
Chesapeake is part of Hampton Roads, home to a large naval and military community, so many families live here for a few years before moving on. A map of the neighbourhood where you lived, or of the house you bought, is a lasting way to remember that time.
Set the title to a street, a neighbourhood or a family name, add a date in the subtitle and adjust the coordinates line. Choose Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Printed posters come on matte paper with an optional wooden frame.
