  Kanawha City

  In the mid 20th century, Kanawha City was the place to be for local teenyboppers and college students, who would descend on the walkable area's soda fountains, record stores and bike shops every weekend. It's still very much an active locale, but nowadays, a lot of the hubbub has moved across the river to downtown Charleston. Today, Kanawha City
