Destroyed in both the Revolutionary War and the Civil War, Norfolk has grown into the hub of metropolitan Hampton Roads and the financial center of southeastern Virginia and northeastern North Carolina. Norfolk is home to the world's largest concentration of permanent naval installations. It's no wonder many call this "The Pentagon by The Sea".
