Public and Community Uses
There are a wide range of community and
pubic uses located in the Study Area. Along
Cedar Road, in the northern portion of the
Study Area, Tidewater Community College
creates a gateway when entering the area
on Cedar Road from the South. Across the
street from Tidewater Community College
is the Chesapeake Center for Science and
Technology, the oldest career and technical
school in the Commonwealth, established in
1967. Adjacent to the high school is Cedar
Road Elementary School. Traveling further
southeast along the corridor, Grassfield High
School is on Scenic Parkway and Dominion
Boulevard. The last school, Grassfield
Elementary School, is located within the
new, larger 100 acre suburban development
on the north side of the Study Area between
Cedar Road and Dominion Boulevard on
Langshire Crescent, a cul-de-sac within the
development.
