Why this spot

1910s+ Sanborn-mapped town on James River at the mouth of the Appomattox (historic City Point)

Earliest LOC Sanborn coverage read as 1915, at the very edge of the bottle era, when the DuPont boom created the town over the old City Point port. May overlap an existing City Point atlas entry; dedupe by coordinates.
