    Centered on Olde Towne and the Elizabeth River waterfront, 23704 blends historic charm with urban convenience. Strollable High Street anchors daily life with cafés like The Coffee Shoppe, patios at The Bier Garden and Legend Brewing Depot, indie boutiques, and the restored Commodore Theatre, while the Portsmouth Art & Cultural Center, Children’s Museum of Virginia, and the riverfront Atlantic Union Bank Pavilion fuel a lively arts-and-events calendar. Locals jog the Seawall and High Street Landing, launch kayaks or paddleboards at Portsmouth City Park, and hop the Elizabeth River Ferry to downtown Norfolk; I‑264 and the Downtown/Midtown Tunnels keep commutes easy. Summers are warm and humid, winters mild, and breezes roll in off the water. Everyday needs are close by—Food Lion on London Blvd, weekend farmers markets, and the Effingham Street YMCA—plus dog-friendly green spaces and patios make it welcoming for pets.
