Our Cities Are Growing Together The November 1 opening of a new $58,500,000 bridge-tunnel between Norfolk and Hampton, and a merger of the cities of Newport News and Warwick, are current events of significance to marketing men. The new Newport News created by the merger will be Virginia's largest city in area, third in population. The new bridge-tunnel completes a five-city circuit: NorfolkPortsmouth — Warwick — Newport News — Hampton. Etherwise, the cities of Tidewater Virginia always have been a single urban area— delivered by one dominant station, WTAR-TV. Now the oneness comes down to earth. Our cities are growing together. Even more significant than the merger and the new underwater link themselves is the area growth that brought them about. Keep your eyes on the Hampton Roads area, one of the fastest growing markets in the nation ! Foremost Communications Medium in Virginia' s Greatest Market (Based on Measured Contour Map by Jansky & Bailey) 5 of Virginia's Busiest Cities are within WTAR-TV's Grade-A Signal.
