A walk around the town of Welch, in McDowell County West Virginia.
Welch is is the county seat of McDowell County in West Virginia.
The coal industry supported the growth and success of McDowell County. Due to the decline of coal and coal jobs, this once thriving community has seen a slow and steady decline over past decades. In Welch’s heyday it was a bustling town with many businesses and residents. It’s little more than a ghost town now. Most of the structures in this video are either abandoned or in desperate need of repair.
At 10:28 we can see the McDowell County courthouse. On the steps of this courthouse on August 1, 1921, detectives from the Baldwin-Felts Detective Agency assassinated Matewan Police Chief Sid Hatfield and his deputy Ed Chambers , famous for the Matewan Massacre.
At 20:17 we can see the first municipally owned parking building in the United States, first opened in September of 1941.
