White Sulphur Springs, WV

White Sulphur Springs is a Greenbrier County city built around Howard Creek and the mineral springs that made it a resort destination in the 19th century. The springs drew wealthy visitors from Virginia's Low Country, and the town became known as one of the South's leading watering places. That history still sits alongside ordinary town landmarks: U.S. 60, I-64, White Sulphur Springs Elementary, Greenbrier Episcopal School, and the library in the Katherine Coleman Johnson Building. Johnson, a White Sulphur Springs native, became a NASA mathematician whose work is remembered locally in the building's name. The city also celebrates spring with an annual Dandelion Festival. White Sulphur Springs is a small Greenbrier city where resort history, a hometown scientist with a place in NASA history, and everyday county roads share the same map.
