Sitting on the mouth of the James River, Newport News, Va., is known for transportation and naval shipbuilding. As the home of a joint Army/Airforce base, it houses one of the largest shipyards in the world, specializing in nuclear-powered submarines and aircraft carriers. These military installations drive much of the coastal economy, yet Newport News also boasts a diverse and history-soaked culture. One of the theatres in the area is named after singer Ella Fitzgerald who was born in the city. Newport News also has a vibrant food scene.
