Home sweet home…
Once known for it’s beautiful stretch on the Chesapeake Bay, East Ocean View later became a poor substitute for tourists who desired the bigger beaches of the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. Forgotten, East Ocean View became a neighborhood ridden with poverty, prostitution and violence.
Now, like me, the neighborhood is undergoing a revitalization. We have stories. I am here to tell them.
Wikipedia gives a wonderfully accurate and detailed account of the origins and history of the area. The links section offers direction to sites about East Ocean View, the City of Norfolk, Va and other local interests.
Welcome to the neighborhood.
