About Norfolk (Virginia)
Norfolk has always been a Navy town, home to the world's largest naval base. Town Point Park is a waterfront park area right downtown that hosts several festivals and events throughout the year. Granby Street is the main downtown thoroughfare, lined with restaurants and bars. Ghent is a historic district adjacent to downtown. Filled with historic homes, tree-lined streets and beautiful old churches, it is a good mix of residential and business. Colley Avenue and 21st Street are the main shopping and dining areas, with dozens of locally-owned boutiques, shops, antique stores, restaurants and bars. The Naro theater on Colley Avenue is the region's sole movie theater with indie flicks. Ocean View is Norfolk's beach community, and features relatively uncrowded beaches on the Chesapeake Bay. Du
