Virginia Civil Engineering Historical Locations Interactive Map
Map of significant sites and monuments of civil engineering importance in Virginia. The referenced sites are long-serving public works projects exemplifying unique engineering features or having overcome significant technical challenges in design and construction. Some still actively serve critical business or defense purposes, while others have taken on a second life as ambassadors of civil engineering's benefits in a capacity as publicly accessible monuments. All represent the best in civil engineering practice across the state of Virginia and, its many visitors and the wider world they serve.
