Here's some history!
Portsmouth is located on the western side of the Elizabeth River directly across from the City of Norfolk. In 1620, the future site of Portsmouth was recognized as suitable shipbuilding location by John Wood, a shipbuilder, who petitioned King James I of England for a land grant. The surrounding area was soon settled as a plantation community.[4]

Portsmouth was founded by Colonel William Crawford, a member of the Virginia House of Burgesses.[5] It was established as a town in 1752 by an act of the Virginia General Assembly and was named for Portsmouth, England.[4]
In 1767, Andrew Sprowle, a shipbuilder, founded the Gosport Shipyard adjacent to Portsmouth. The Gosport Shipyard at Portsmouth was owned by the Commonwealth of Virginia after the American Revolutionary War and was sold to the new United States federal government.
In 1855, the Portsmouth and Norfolk area suffered an epidemic of yellow fever which killed 1 of every three citizens. It became an independent city from Norfolk County in 1858.
During the American Civil War, in 1861, Virginia joined the Confederate States of America. Fearing that the Confederacy would take control of the shipyard at Portsmouth, the shipyard commander ordered the burning of the shipyard. The Confederate forces did in fact take over the shipyard, and did so without armed conflict through an elaborate ruse orchestrated by civilian railroad builder William Mahone (soon to become a famous Confederate officer). The Union forces withdrew to Fort Monroe across Hampton Roads, which was the only land in the area which remained under Union control.
In early 1862, the Confederate ironclad warship CSS Virginia was rebuilt using the burned-out hulk of USS Merrimack. Virginia engaged the Union ironclad USS Monitor in the famous Battle of Hampton Roads during the Union blockade of Hampton Roads. The Confederates burned the shipyard again when they left in May 1862.
Following the recapture of Norfolk and Portsmouth by the Union forces, the name of the shipyard was changed to Norfolk Naval Shipyard. The name of the shipyard was derived from its location in Norfolk County. The Norfolk Naval Shipyard today is located entirely within the city limits of Portsmouth, Virginia. The Norfolk Naval Shipyard name has been retained to minimize any confusion with the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, which itself is actually located in Kittery, Maine, across the Piscataqua River from Portsmouth, New Hampshire.

We've been in the Richmond location for the last 25 years now and we're looking to expand Brew Pub all over the state......We selected Portsmouth because it's a great place to come.

Portsmouth Mayor John Rowe adds, It's created some excitement about Portsmouth in the region......I can hardly go to any place in Hampton Roads without somebody asking me about how is the new Legend's location, or they have been there and comment about their beer or about the food. Learn how and why this expansion, Legend's first after 25 years, landed in the perfect spot on the Hampton Roads waterfront.
Portsmouth African Burying Ground Portsmouth Black Heritage Trail
Site of Negro Burying Ground - In colonial Portsmouth, segregation applied in death as in life. City officials approved a plan in 1705 that set aside this city block for a Negro Burying Ground. It was close to town, but pushed to what was then its outer edge. By 1813, houses were built over the site. In October of 2003 city construction workers accidently revealed thirteen wood coffins under one very small area of Chestnut Street, suggesting high density use of space centuries ago. Those burials, along with human remains found scattered in another section of that street, are among a yet-unknown number interred in a larger area including the city's Portsmouth African Burying Ground Memorial Park.
