Portlock

The Southern Branch of the Elizabeth River defines the setting of Portlock — its tidal channel places this Chesapeake neighborhood within Hampton Roads’ interconnected harbor system. Portlock lies in the urban north of Chesapeake, where residential streets sit close to a waterway long used by commercial shipping and naval industry. Chesapeake was created in 1963 through the consolidation of the former city of South Norfolk and Norfolk County, a history reflected in the area’s established communities and working corridors. The wider Hampton Roads region opens toward Chesapeake Bay and includes the ports of Norfolk and Portsmouth across the river.
