A white cross stands on an overgrown lot beside what was once an oil company's southeastern headquarters on Charleston's upper peninsula, a relic of the tent revivals frequently held on the site years ago.

Starting later this year, the small tract will see the footings for what will be a 40,000-square-foot, three-story building called The Refinery with a 300-seat amphitheater in the back.

That's the plan by Flyway, a development and general contracting firm housed next door in what once was the regional office building for the former Standard Oil Co.
