Staunton, VA Photos

Staunton, VA sits in the Shenandoah Valley between the Blue Ridge and Allegheny Mountains of the Appalachian Range. Started in the 1730s the town grew into an import manufacturing and transportation hub. While these were destroyed during the Civil War, heritage buildings and the nature of the town survived which gives Staunton a critical mass of architectural interest.
