Two boats—one at left center, the other at right rear—make their way through the flooded
Huntington, West Virginia, warehouse district at the edge of the Ohio River on March 22,
1936. A sign on one of the buildings identifies it as the home of the Huntington Transfer and
Storage Company. Most of the buildings in the city's warehouse district were leveled as a
result of downtown urban renewal in the 1960s. (Courtesy the C&O Historical Society.)
