History of Estabrook
Stability is the best word to describe Estabrook’s past. Developed in the 1920s as almost a country settlement in Norfolk county, Estabrook’s only connection with the downtown area revolved around a trolley line that ran along Chesapeake Blvd., between the City of Norfolk and Ocean View. Containing a history of helpful residents who resided along quiet streets where no two houses were the same, the two or three bedroom homes in here were built to last.
