Roanoke, Virginia

Roanoke, United States

Roanoke, Virginia carries 85 connections spanning 1624 other places and 19 topics, with government, history, and transportation as its dominant threads. The city's railway past runs through many of these links: its Norfolk and Western Railway station, renovated in 1949 in the Moderne style by designer Raymond Loewy, anchors a historic district listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Healthcare growth in the 21st century and outdoor infrastructure, including 43 miles of marked bike lanes, tie Roanoke to broader regional patterns shared with North Carolina and Pennsylvania.
