HISTORIC DOWNTOWN BECKLEY

The economic center of southern West Virginia, Beckley, and its downtown blossomed during the first half of the 20th century from a quiet courthouse village into a sprawling city of more than 20,000 residents. Fueled by the growth of the region’s coal mining industry, it had also benefitted from its location along a natural travel route between the East Coast and Midwest. Expressways that meet at Beckley today shadow historic roads that joined in what’s now the city’s historic downtown. Around that road junction in 1835, Alfred Beckley platted a village, which became the site of a small country courthouse.

The community grew slowly until World War I, after which the small collection of wooden and brick buildings began to increase in quality and dimension. What is now the downtown began to extend outward along avenues such as Neville Street, where village homes were replaced by civic and commercial buildings of brick and stone, two to four stories tall.

The downtown was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1994, securing for property owners within the district the financing to improve properties and restore them to the 1900-1945 period. In 2015, West Virginia University acquired buildings in and adjacent to the downtown and moved its technology campus to Beckley. In recent years, the potential of the downtown to benefit from proximity to the growing campus has attracted investment and much speculative attention.

NEW RIVER GORGE REGION

Beckley is located at the center New River Gorge Region, an area of level highlands through which the New River has carved a steep-walled canyon, the most precipitous part of which, near Fayetteville, is known as the New River Gorge. More than 70,000 acres across the region are protected by the National Park Service as part of the New River Gorge National River.

With the exception of the gorge and the steep-walled valley of the New River, the region is otherwise known for its relatively level character—hilly in places, but without the steep and mountainous terrain found in other areas of the state. Though moderately industrialized during the early 1900s, the region since the 1950s has been more highly regarded as a destination for a clean industry. Air and water quality are both relatively high throughout much of the region.

The highland area is also known for its pleasant climate. Summer heat rarely exceeds 90 degrees, while winter cold rarely falls below the 20s. Snowfall is traditionally moderate, and snow rarely lingers long expect in the most mountainous areas in the east along the Allegheny Mountains.
