Maier Foundation Inc. Buys Old Train Station
WEST VIRGINIA....
Ed Maier has acquired the 105-year-old train station situated at MacCorkle Avenue and the Southside Bridge from the Haddad family. The building, added in 1984 to the National Register of Historic Places, will soon be home to the Maier Foundation Inc. and General Corp. among Maier’s other business interests. Maier recently sold the City Center West office tower to the West Virginia Lottery Commission for $21.5 million. Maier says the purchase will not affect lease agreements with existing tenants Amtrak and Laury’s, a fine-dining restaurant.
