The largest pre-Civil War commercial structure in Lynchburg

The J. W. Wood Building is a historic commercial building located at 9th Street 27 in Lynchburg, Virginia. Covering 29,000 square feet (2,700 m2), the structure was built between 1851 and 1853. It was originally constructed as a warehouse and stands as a significant example of modified Greek Revival architecture.

As the largest remaining pre-Civil War commercial structure in Lynchburg, the building retains much of its original character. It is also recognized as the best-preserved commercial structure from that era still standing in the city.

The building was officially listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. It serves as a preserved piece of the city's architectural history, representing the scale of commerce during the mid-19th century.
