It is great that the retail space in Huntington is looking healthy. It is a shame that Huntington is not trying to bring larger, more industrial companies back to the area so the middle class can once again thrive in the town like it did 25 years ago.

It's over. Deal.

Sad part is local leaders have the same attitude which is why the tri-state is suffering from a huge "brain drain."

WTF????

Stick a fork in the tri-state. It is done.
