The North End End Historic District is a 22 block, early twentieth century neighborhood of downtown Newport News. Developed primarily between 1900 and 1935, it is the largest and most architecturally cohesive neighborhood of the inner city.
This is a neighborhood as you might remember yours while growing up, where neighbors stop and visit and your children can rely on the people who live next door. We are a close-knit, enthusiastic, and diverse group of neighbors who are dedicated to preserving our architectural heritage. Churches dot our streets and the bustle of shipyard activity remind us of the city's roots. Our community is bounded on one side by majestic Huntington Avenue, which overlooks the James River and takes you to the port areas of the city as well as the nearby Monitor and Merrimack museum. Warwick Boulevard forms the eastern boundary, which leads to the Leeward Marina, Huntington Parkand beach, the War Museum, historic Hilton, and the world-renowned Mariners Museum.
