Staunton, Virginia - 1/8/2005

CSX / Amtrak lines behind the Depo in the wharf district. Stonewall Jackson Hotel, currently undergoing major restoration. Beverly Street looking West from near the newly renovated Dixie Theater. Beverly Beverly and Augusta with the old Clock Tower in the background. Barristers Row behind the old town hall building. Just a few shots around Staunton. Lots of changes here due to several renovation projects. The Dixie theater renovation is now complete giving Staunton back a great old theater. But on the inside it's a modern digital movie experience. Soon, the Staunton Performing Arts will begin to book a series of live shows. The Stonewall Jackson Hotel is a big deal. It's renovation is about 2/3's done. When complete, it will serve as not only a hotel but also as a conference center. The old iron hotel sign on the roof was removed just two weeks before this picture. It's being cleaned and repaired for eventual return to it's the roof.
