from the past 2 Old motel sign at Kiptopeke State Park. The ferry to Virginia Beach used to run from Kiptopeke, but stopped running when the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel was built. This motel (Tourinns Motor Court) lasted until 1992, when the state park was built. I love the "Free TV" part!
Factory Point in Hampton, Virginia Breakwaters protect the sandy shoreline of Factory Point in Hampton, Va., on June 15, 2023. In the 1990s, after a decade of increased storm frequency and higher tides in the lower Chesapeake Bay, the thin strip of land was breached, disconnecting it from nearby Grandview Nature Preserve. Shoreline erosion and flooding continued to plague residential areas in the region. In 2011, 140,000 cubic yards of sand was dredged from the adjacent shoal, and the breakwater/sill structures were added to protect Factory Point and the waters inland.
