Editing Shenandoah, Virginia (section)

===21st century===
Shenandoah's downtown was hit by a fire on May 23, 2006. Two stores and one residential building were destroyed. The inferno raged for over 18 hours despite seven fire companies' efforts to battle the blaze.

A second large fire struck the downtown area on March 27, 2007. Again, seven fire companies responded to the fire that burned for nearly ten hours. Three structures were destroyed and four were damaged.

The [[Commonwealth (U.S. state)|Commonwealth]] of Virginia gave the town numerous grants for the beautification of its once-destroyed Main Street (First Street) area. The Page County Board of Supervisors agreed to accept a $7.8 million state grant application on September 9, 2021, aimed at bringing wireless broadband to every home in the county. Previously, Shenandoah was the only town in Page County to have wireless broadband.

The [[Shenandoah Historic District]], [[Shenandoah Land and Improvement Company Office]], [[Strickley-Louderback House]], and [[Welfley-Shuler House]] are listed on the [[National Register of Historic Places]].<ref name="nris">{{NRISref|version=2010a}}</ref>

As of 2017, [[Norfolk Southern]] owns a large railyard across from First Street. On a typical day, 10 to 15 trains can be seen in the yard. On the north end of the yard, there are remains of the old [[Norfolk and Western]] shops. These shops were abandoned in the late due to the switch to [[diesel locomotives]].
