The commercial heart of the West End neighborhood; the self-proclaimed "antiques capital of West Virginia." About ten antique stores line 14th St. West.

The crowning jewel of Huntington's park system and an immense point of local pride. Fourpole Creek separates a flat portion from a hilly portion. Has a walking track, short hiking trail, tennis courts, picnic tables, and an excellent playground. In the summer, the amphitheater hosts outdoor dramas and festivals. Ritter Park's rose garden boasts over a thousand roses.
