ABOUT THE BUILDING
The three-story building at 172 Spruce Street was built by the Milkint brothers in 1905 to serve the fast-growing coal town of Thomas, West Virginia. The street-front commercial space was used as a general store until the mid-1960s and then it sat empty for almost half-a-century. Beautifully restored to its original turn-of-the-century charm, the Milkint Building features six apartments and two commercial spaces. Close to Dolly Sods Wilderness Area and the ski resorts at Canaan Valley and Whitegrass, the apartments can be used for permanent living, or as a weekend getaway.
