20th Century: Capitol Street store in 1939 - News - The Charleston ...

CHARLESTON, W.Va. --  My mom used to shop at O.J. Morrison's and I remember the basement had a shoe shop where I could get heels on my "Thom McCan" shoes while Mom looked at the fashions upstairs. Built on the site of "The Burlew Opera House" today you can look carefully and make out where the walls of the Opera House still show through.

The founder, O.J. Morrison from Ripley (1869-1952), had several stores and was a highly successful merchant.

This photo of the Capitol Street store - the biggest and best of his locations is shown not long after a remodeling in 1939. Today the building is well cared for and houses several firms. Several doors north of Brawley Walkway, is now "The Village Place."
