Have you ever told someone out of town who’s never been to Tidewater that you live in Chesapeake and have them begin exclaiming jealousy at your good fortune to live along the seashore of the bay? And then see their confusion when you tell them Chesapeake doesn’t adjoin the bay at all, anywhere?
Well, back in 1963 when Norfolk County and South Norfolk merged, one of the problems was what to name the new city. The city founders held an election in which any name receiving a petition with 100 signatures could be put on the ballot.
It was obvious early on that “Chesapeake” was the mild favorite but it wasn’t a particular favorite of the leading politicians who hoped somebody would come up more of a zinger. Many of the politicos lived in Great Bridge and liked the name and the area and there was a mini boomlet for “Great Bridge” as the election approached.
One might think that naming a city would be important business to its citizens but only 1662 people bothered to vote. “Chesapeake” took 1274 of the votes. “Great Bridge” trailed in a distant second with 171 votes. Some of the names on the ballot received only 1 or 2 votes.
Among the choices on the ballot that day were:
Bridgeport, Chesapeake, Churchland, Glendale, Glennville, Gosport, Great Bridge, Norcova, Port Elizabeth, Sunray City, Virginia City, Woodford
Despite Chesapeake’s present land-locked location some distance from its namesake bay there is an old connection. Chesapeake formed part of the original Norfolk County grant that comprised much of tidewater and did indeed border the Chesapeake Bay. The oldest deeds from the original charter now reside in the Chesapeake Clerk’s office.

So, when someone says “Acredale”, what pops into your mind? -The horse upon Acredale Saddlery? (After all, they have been there over 40 years) The large intersection at Indian River Road and Kempsville Road? The movie theater? Well, did you know that tucked behind all of those things is a community that has been around since 1944? A peaceful community, well kept, and shining with pride of ownership, Acredale.
The Acredale community is made up of approximately 290 homes, which average 1500 square feet of living space. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Kempsville Road, you would hardly know you lived so close to all of the modern conveniences of banking, shopping, and dining.
Once upon a time the Acredale area was filled with farm homes, corn, and Elm trees. The roads were not even paved. Most anything that had to be purchased, had to be bought in Norfolk and brought back to Acredale. Kempsville and the surrounding area were not developed until long after Acredale was developed. Remember, Acredale was developed in 1944, and the shopping center across the street, which still stands today, was developed sometime shortly after 1970.
Very near I 64, sought after homes in Acredale are in a convenient location, whether you work in Chesapeake, Virginia Beach, Norfolk, or Portsmouth.
