Looking Back

By: M. Lynne Squires

...at The Diamond Department Store

became synonymous with shopping malls, Charleston had a few stores that anchored the downtown shopping experience. Among them, The Diamond Department Store, the jewel in the retail crown of the capitol city.

Completed in a record six months in 1927, The Diamond was built on Capitol Street, on the site of the state capitol building that burnt to the ground in 1921. Designed by architect Charles Haviland, The Diamond was a state-of-theart store. The original building was five floors boasting large display windows fronting Capitol Street, modern ventilation, three elevators, and a pneumatic tube system to shuttle cash and receipts between various departments and the office. Adults and children alike marveled at the small metal tubes that ‘whooshed’ out of sight, returning a few minutes later with their change and receipts.

In 1949, it was expanded to the corner of Washington Street, diagonal from the prestigious Daniel Boone Hotel. The $1,250,000 expansion added two more elevators and a set of escalators that reached from the basement to the fifth floor. The first escalators in the state drew people from great distances just to ride them.

Virginia State College, as well as white supporters, staged a 7 hour sit-down protest at the lunch counter. The department store finally integrated its dining facilities on May 3, 1960.

The windows are remembered by many for the elaborate displays, and none as well-loved as the Christmas windows. Mechanical toys, dolls, trains, and more drew up to 80,000 shoppers on peak December shopping days.

One window displayed a train that could be activated by shoppers pressing a button adjacent to the window.

A review of the departments on each of the floors is certain to bring back many memories of shopping The Diamond. Hickory Farms added a location in part of the basement in the 1970’s. The rest of the basement housed the ‘Budget Store.’

The street floor was home to fine jewelry, costume jewelry, and for several years provided ear piercing services. Other departments on the street floor were handbags, gloves, hosiery, hats, cosmetics, candy, a bake shop, notions, stationary and the men’s store.

The mezzanine housed the beauty salon. The open balcony waiting area gave an open view of the first floor, as well as the occasional smell of permanent wave solution wafting down on shoppers.

The second floor was referred to as the ‘fashion floor’ and offered all things to appeal to the well-appointed woman shopper, and the young woman shopper as well in the ‘Young W.Va. Shop.’ From bridal gowns to maternity gowns, fur coats to tennis dresses, and evening gowns to garden party frocks, the second floor was a one-stop fashion shop. There, of course, were shoes aplenty for

At mid-century, The Diamond was expanded eastward up Washington Street.

Both times the Diamond building was expanded, it took over space previously occupied by the Sterling Restaurant. After the second expansion, and their displacement, the Sterling built a new building down from the Daniel Boone Hotel.

Wehrle B. Geary, a Roane County native, and A.W. Cox merged their resources in 1926 to open The Diamond. The store’s name came from Wehrle, who had opened the Diamond Shoe Store in 1906, which became a full-fledged department store in 1917. In 1956, Associated Dry Good purchased 226,000 square foot Diamond Department Store. In the 1970’s a second location was opened in the Parkersburg’s Grand Central Mall.

Personal service, now practically a thing of the past, was a trademark of The Diamond. They offered store-to-church bridal service, an in-house photographer and on-site artist, a wig booth for trying wigs in privacy, and a book store offering signings and luncheons with visiting authors.

The store offered a luncheonette on the first floor, and a large cafeteria on the fifth floor, both popular eateries for shoppers and downtown business people.

The store was the site of a sit-down protest however, as it barred African-Americans from its lunch counter and cafeteria for decades. African-American organizations instituted a two-year boycott of the store, and students from West

the well-dressed lady.

The third floor had all things for the well-appointed home. Lamps, pictures, draperies, bedding, floor coverings and furniture.

Infants, children and teens needs were covered on the fourth floor. In addition to children’s wear, the floor was the home to toys, linens, domestics, fabrics, needlework supplies, and ‘Trim the Tree’ shop during the holiday season.

Fifth floor was home to housewares, fine china, sliver, electronics, appliances, paints, and the book store. The enormous cafeteria served a large variety of entrees, desserts, and drinks that were carried to the table by apron clad waitresses. Many holiday memories include having breakfast with Santa each year in The Diamond cafeteria.

The Charleston Town Center Mall opened in 1983, and in the same year The Diamond’s inventory was liquidated and the business closed in both locations.

The state purchased the Charleston building and it now houses government offices. Employee reunions were held occasionally for years after the stores closing. Little is left to remind anyone of the beloved retail giant of the Kanawha Valley, other than memories.

Next month, Looking Back heads to Kanawha City and the Libby Owens Ford glass plant.

Great Ways to Make Your OUTDOOR SPACE a Great Place to Live!

It

’s that time of year when we all look forward to comfortable temperatures and relaxing spaces to spend our evenings and time with friends. Well-developed plans for the extension of the home is the success of a well concepted plan.

Here are 5 tips that will make a difference!

Connect the outdoor space to the adjacent indoor room. When you want to create that smooth transition, it is always a good move to consider the starting point. That is the space you are coming from inside the home as you enter the outdoor space. Style, Color, and Function are all connected to

that indoor partner. Often our outdoor space is connected to the kitchen so considering a dining space for the initial experience as you head into the outdoor space might be a good idea.

Next, when the opportunity allows extend comfortable seating that is a perfect complement to that inside the home. A breeze flowing through doors pulled back create a sense of air that is most often relaxing. These complements can be created by using wood tones that marry well with those pieces inside. Or, using similar styles outdoors in colors and patterns that reflect the indoor experience.

Create multiple groupings to make the space more interesting! A dining area, a covered space, a conversation point, and perhaps that area by the pool. Just as when inside the home, nobody wants to feel trapped in a room where there is only one way out. And, having options to allow for more comfortable conversation is always a plus!

MAKING HOME a better place to live

Find a great and hopefully dramatic focal point. Often the use of an outdoor TV viewing space in the plan will draw the crowd into the space. More often, the use of interesting water features or an interesting fire table will make you “want” to be in the space!

Finally, pick a theme or color to create a cohesive blend to the equation. For example, the use of a color punch throughout the environment in toss pillows, planters, and flowers will make the space feel wonderful and RIGHT. The use of a consistent style in all areas will quickly do the same!

Clearly there are many opportunities to create additional square footage that may make the home on the market more attractive or the amount of space in your home greater in a comfortable way.

Many of these ideas are affordable and easy to achieve!

As we always say at COOPORRIS18, “Make you HOME a GREAT PLACE TO LIVE!” Have a great summer!

The massive Raystown Lake provides year round fun for the one million plus visitors each year - Melody Pittman

Driving five hours Northeast of Charleston brings you to the historic town of Huntingdon, Pennsylvania.

Huntingdon, celebrating 250 years in 2017, is situated about halfway between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.

It is a few miles from the shore of the state’s largest lake, Raystown Lake.

Outdoor lovers will be fascinated with the caves, fishing, boating, mountain biking, and hiking opportunities available in Huntingdon. Huntingdon’s scenery reminds the writer of her home in the West Virginia hills. Here are some recommendations to help inspire a weekend traveler getaway in the charming town of Huntingdon, Pennsylvania. #HdonPA250 32 CharlestonHomeandLiving.com | JUNE 2017 June2017.032.indd 2

WHERE TO STAY IN HUNTINGDON Staying in Huntingdon’s historic downtown would be best suited at one of the local bed and breakfasts. Gage Mountain B B is within walking distance of all of the downtown offerings, has seven rooms with private baths, and includes a gourmet breakfast.

This Victorian home is adorned with stately stained glass, six fireplaces, and a billiards suite.

The Edgewater Inn circa 1762 is located 15 minutes outside of downtown Huntingdon and has a gorgeous se ng on the uniata River. Guests here can spend time tubing on the river that runs by only steps away. A gourmet breakfast is included and pets are allowed.

Pay particular attention to the stained glass and architecture of the lovely Gage Mountain B&B.- Melody Pittman

Edgewater Inn’s Riverside Grill offers a pretty view of the uniata River from the bar area. I recommend trying their Chicken Piccata or Crab Lobster Stuffed Ravioli with creamy Vodka sauce.

Traveler

Riverside Grill has a new chef onboard to handle their restaurant and many wedding/ meeting functions. - Melody Pittman

Downtown Huntingdon has the largest concentration of buildings on the National Historic Register that i have ever seen. - Melody Pittman

Large families or those wanting lodge-like accommodations will go crazy over Bear’s Paw Lodge, a private mountaintop retreat that easily sleeps 25 people. Its impressive amenities include a built-in sauna, state-ofthe-art kitchen, stone double-sided fireplace, wrap deck overlooking 0 wooded acres, and impressive furnishings.

Visitors coming to Huntingdon County’s Raystown Lake can rent houseboats, cabins, lodge rooms, campsites, or a hotel room nearby.

WHERE TO DINE IN HUNTINGDON

The most popular eatery in Huntingdon is Boxer’s Cafe. The restaurant fills up quickly, so plan accordingly. For upscale dining, visit Mimi’s Restaurant Martini Bar.

A HUNTINGDON UNIQUE OFFERING The addition of the Allegrippis Trails has brought a significant addition of outdoor enthusiasts to Huntingdon, Pennsylvania.

These stacked-loop trails go on for over 30 miles and provide the perfect terrain for mountain bikers, hikers, and cross-country skiers, seasonally. Fat tire biking, a popular activity in Huntington, is fabulous on a course of this nature. Bikes can be rented at Rothrock Ou itters in downtown Huntingdon.

WHAT TO DO ON YOUR WEEKEND TRIP Wander through various underground caves at the Lincoln Caverns. This area is home to the largest cave formations in the state.

Enjoy nostalgia at the Isett Acres Museum.

Collector Melvin Isett has been adding antiques and retro items to his massive collection over 0,000 items and three buildings full for 50 years now. The museum is organized in a fashion that puts like items together, making it much easier to view and see the artifacts. This is certainly a unique way to stroll down memory lane and remember the days gone by. Seasonal gardens surround the property.

Interested in seeing water falls If so, Rainbow Falls is a spectacular offering Cross the suspension bridge over the Great Trough Creek gorge and hike a short distance to view Balanced Rock, a boulder that appears to teeter on the edge of a cliff. Kids will enjoy wading in the stream, fishing for trout, picnics and exploring the Ice Mine a natural refrigerator at Trough Creek State Park.

RAYSTOWN LAKE & DAM

This gorgeous lake will win you over at first sight. Rent a boat from the Seven Points Marina and grab some lunch at the tasty onsite restaurant while you are there. Fishing is in high demand at Raystown Lake since the big prizes are typically striped bass and musky. Houseboats, stand up Paddle Boards, and Kayaks are available for rent, too. One could get lost exploring the secluded coves of this massive lake.

Spend the day on Raystown Lake in a rental boat of your choice and have lunch at their onsite eatery, featuring outdoor seating. - Melody Pittman

WEEKEND TRIP TO HUNTINGDON, PA Whether you are wanting to spend time on the lake and enjoy the outdoors, or soak up the vibe of a 250 year old historic town, Raystown Lake and historic Huntingdon hold unexplored treasures sure to impress. The beauty of nature will astound you

Standing Stone is a place where the local residents come to enjoy good coffee and dishes such as this tasty homemade quiche.- Melody Pittman

Tops Diner is a favorite breakfast spot, while Standing Stone Coffee Company offers more upscale fare. Standing Stone’s Baked Oatmeal is a wonderful regional dish keep that in mind if you like trying local foods.
