A shame to lose that one, but it had probably been open to the

The 1895 "People's Bank Building" in downtown Bluefield has collapsed
and been demolished. The Bluefield papers mentions the possibility of a
railroad overlook. The Bank stood across Princeton avenue from the N&W
railroad passenger station location.

Various Bluefield Daily Telegraph articles related to the building:
