February 13, 201114 yr That's a really cool looking little town. I like the building in the second picture.

February 13, 201114 yr There must be a collective interest in preservation there; even though downtown has some "missing teeth" most of what's there looks like it has had more than ordinary maintenance. Nice! The building in the second picture, with the second-level porch, looks like it might have been an inn with a tavern, the old-time kind that served full meals, at street level.

Ohio actually has a bunch of old Pure stations hanging around. This flickr set includes many: http://www.flickr.com/photos/10707024@N04/sets/72157604263024244/
February 13, 201114 yr I have a collection of South Charleston specific pictures that I took last summer that are bikeway centered, based on my rides from the south up into the area. I have been meaning to post that as a thread. South Charleston is a tidy, quiet little town. These pictures emphasize the little architectural details that I never paid attention to.
February 13, 201114 yr A lot of these towns in the "diagonal roads" part of the state get passed over due to the low population densities of the surrounding areas and the fact that not many people pass through them on the way to other towns. This part of the state saw Virginians as its first white settlers; they were used to diagonal roads at home.
