I discovered that this depot is still standing while studying the South Side Bridge.

The original depot
"The C&O Railway first laid tracks through the Kanawha Valley region in 1873, which greatly expanded industry in West Virginia....In the late 1890s and early 1900s, the C&O provided departure on eight passengers trains daily. The C&O also housed a Freight Depot in Charleston that supplied jobs to 15 handlers and 15 clerks."

Did the C&O have division offices in Charleston?
