Anyone have an idea when this photo was taken or any memories of this former location? If so, comment in the section below.

This is a look at West Pike Street in Clarksburg during the1985 flood that destroyed large parts of West Virginia and hammered much of North Central West Virginia. If anyone has any memories about his flood, share them below in the comment section.
