Kanawha River, Charleston WV

101 Kanawha Blvd
Charleston, WV 25302

The Kanawha River, a tributary of the Ohio River in West Virginia, has played a significant role in the state's industrial development since the early 19th century. With a length of 97 miles and a watershed covering over 12,000 square miles, the river is the largest inland waterway in West Virginia.

The Kanawha River watershed is home to significant coal and natural gas deposits, supporting a thriving chemical industry along its banks. Navigation on the river was improved in the 19th century with the construction of locks and dams, making it the first fully controlled river navigation system in America by 1898.

"Cozy, little spot to jog or relax. Live in the Levy has good concerts and eats. Good spot for fireworks shows. (Though things have slowed due to recent events, it's still a nice place to go.)"
