Directions to the National Park Service's public meeting concerning Fort Monroe, Thursday, Dec. 6, 2007, at 6:30 P.M. in the Northampton Community Center behind Jefferson Davis Middle School on Todds Lane in Hampton.

 

Please note that MapQuest may not be entirely reliable, and that the street address -- 1435-A Todds Lane -- may not be helpful either, because the Northampton Community Center does not front on Todds Lane in Hampton, but is located directly behind Jefferson Davis Middle School on Todds Lane. The school is on the north side of the street. That is, it's on the right if you are driving west toward the James River. 

Here is how to get there:

1.  From I-64 in Hampton, take the Mercury Blvd (Rt 258) exit toward the James River (# 263A if heading toward Williamsburg, or # 263 if heading toward Norfolk). 

2. Proceed west on Mercury to the 3d traffic light from I-64 (Aberdeen Rd), getting into the right turn lane while passing Todds Center shopping mall on your right.

3. Turn right at Aberdeen, then go north one long block to the traffic signal at Todds Lane.

4. From Aberdeen turn left onto Todds Lane and proceed just over a half mile to the second traffic light (Macon St, on the left). Just before you reach that light, Jefferson Davis Middle School will appear on the right.

5.Turn right at the Macon St. light into the school grounds; then drive back behind the middle school to Northampton Community Center.
