About Chesapeake
The name Chesapeake is derived from the Algonquin Indians' name for the area, "Chesepiooc", meaning "Great Shellfish Bay". European settlers began building homes in modern day Chesapeake after the establishment of Jamestown in 1607. Chesapeake is a key city in the Hampton Roads area.
The area now called Chesapeake grew from residential and commercial development of community crossroads areas, which are still referred to by name today. These areas include Great Bridge, Oak Grove, Pleasant Grove, Fentress, South Norfolk, Western Branch, Deep Creek, Indian River, and Hickory.
Chesapeake grew with the rapid explosion of neighboring Virginia Beach and Norfolk. During the 1960s and 1970s, Chesapeake began establishing a solid network of city services, such as police offices, fire departments, schools, libraries, parks, health care centers, land use planning, roads & transportation, and more. The 353 square miles offered by Chesapeake have yielded great opportunities for development - both residential and commercial.
Chesapeake Landscape, Position, & Geography
In recent times, Chesapeake has been a popular residential area for people who work in nearby cities. Today, Chesapeake is also home to large industrial centers and commercial enterprises. The position of Chesapeake is very unique; it offers waterfront areas that touch the Chesapeake Bay, but also offers land area away from large city centers. These characteristics make modern Chesapeake a unique blend of urban and rural, offering excellent opportunites for residential as well as commercial development projects.
